Re: Weird Debugger behavior in RPD 7.6.0.1

Hi Marco,

The system debugger developer is creating a list for me but he didn't say
when it would be available if/when I get it I will post it here.

Hi Marco,

I think you will get no local variables shown if you are debugging

against

V5R4 and your program has a variable that is the same as a debugger
keyword such as "USER". To see if this might be the case for you what
you can try is to debug your program with the system debugger (green
screen) and issue the command :

EVAL %LOCALVARS

If this results in the message "Syntax error occurred" then you have a
variable somewhere in your program that matches a debugger keyword. This
does not happen in V6R1 or later. Unfortunately I don't yet have a

list

of the debugger keywords that will cause the error.

I don't believe that this problem is related to what Thierry describes
below.
