Answer to 1: Basically I would like it to operate like Java IDE Debuggers do - you can see _all_ objects that are 'open' to the current context, and it will allow you to not show global variables, private variables, etc. Or if I could just do a double click and have the variable monitored that would be great. A base reason for going into debug is because you want to see how the program is working any why you aren't getting your expected data, so it is very important, IMO, to have easy and timeless access to your variables. Answer to 2: In the lpex editor it color codes If,DoW,EndIf, etc. When I debug it shows the source listing without the aforementioned color coding. Answer to 3: Run the code that I sent in my previous post and take out the references to the service programs, only leaving in the references to the qualified data structures. Try to monitor the different fields within the qualified data structures and the top level data structure themselves. You will see what I mean. Let me know if I haven't explained myself good enough, Aaron Bartell -----Original Message----- From: Vadim Berestetsky [mailto:berestet@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, June 02, 2003 5:48 PM To: Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries Subject: Re: [WDSCI-L] Debugger and Variables(Monitor) Hi Aaron, Let me try to tackle those points one by one... 1) I am curious what it is that you are looking for as far as variables monitoring goes. Seems to me you are doing RPG. So, are you looking to view all 'local' variables in a single window? Or would you like to view all variables in scope (including global) in a single window? Are you willing to pay the price of monitoring that many variables at the same time? I hinted in my earlier note that we are looking to support local variables for RPG... 2) Not exactly sure what you mean by saying that color coding have been lost. As far as I know, executable lines should be in a different color from non-executable. If this is not the case, could you please send me screen capture to my e-mail address. I'd like to see exactly what it looks like. 3) I will look into this, but I wonder if you can at least reference individual fields within the data structure?

It would be nice if I didn't have to select each variable that I wanted to see, but instead have it load the Monitor window with a list of the current variables in the program. More often then not I want to view many variables and not few variables. Is there a setting somewhere that can be changed? The color coding seems to have been lost because the code listing is being used. . . I didn't use the CODE debugger that much , but I am pretty sure that the code was colored while debugging. Takes me back to my green screen days where every color is the same - makes the debug hard to read. And finally, if I define a data structure as 'address' and there is a field called 'address' within another data structure, I am unable to Monitor the content of the data structure because it gives me this error: 'Host: CPF7E56 Identifier is ambiguous'. It does this within STRDBG also. . . Here is the code: /Copy QSource,UsrSpcPr D lib S 10A Inz('AARONLIB') D space S 10A Inz('TESTUSRSPC') D i S 10I 0 D email DS Qualified D address 25A D name 25A D address DS Qualified D name 10A D adr1 10A D adr2 10A D city 10A D state 10A D zipCode 10A /Free new_UsrSpc(lib: space); email.address = 'albartell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx'; email.name = 'Aaron Bartell'; addEntry_UsrSpc(lib: space: 'Email': %Size(email): email); email.address = 'happy@xxxxxxx'; email.name = 'Happy You'; addEntry_UsrSpc(lib: space: 'Email': %Size(email): email); email.address = 'Lloyd@xxxxxxxxxx'; email.name = 'Lloyd Lumber'; addEntry_UsrSpc(lib: space: 'Email': %Size(email): email); address.name = 'Jim Carey'; address.adr1 = '113 Bye'; address.city = 'Mankato'; address.state = 'MN'; address.zipCode = '56001'; addEntry_UsrSpc(lib: space: 'Cust Address': %Size(address): address); address = ' '; For i = 1 To 3 By 1; email = getEntry_UsrSpc(lib: space: i); EndFor; address = getEntry_UsrSpc(lib: space: 4); delete_UsrSpc(lib: space); *InLR = *On; /End-Free _______________________________________________ This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l. _______________________________________________ This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l.
