RE: what lines of code in program are executed.

As an alternative to Code Coverage, there are also the ancient ADDTRC and DSPTRCDTA commands in green screen debug. I used to love to hate them on the S/38.

I don't think so - I mean that the program was compiled to be
debuggable. From the reference, "The DEBUG keyword does not control
whether the module is created to be debuggable." It is there to add some
debugging aids, such as being able to use the DUMP operation in RPG, I
believe.

I haven't tried it, but maybe this means that code coverage can handle
CLLE and other languages. I also don't know if it works for OPM programs.

Vern,

Sounds familiar, you mean program compiled with
0001.00 H DEBUG

There's a fairly recent feature of RDi that can do this for you - it's called Code Coverage - I think you have to have debug information, not sure.

i have a huge program that i would like some kind of trace report
showing what lines of code are executed. Its an RPGLE program.

Many users use this program during the day. If i counld dump all the
trace information into a file that would be great.

Any suggestions?

PS. This program does call other programs/services programs, but i am
only interested in the one programs lines executed.
