Seemed like a good idea. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work.
The first statement in my CL was changed to CHGDBG. In RDP I created a SEP for that program with a breakpoint on the CHGDBG statement. Unfortunately the statement ran w/o the breakpoint stopping on it. (In RDP I see the little blue square next to the line number after setting the breakpoint.)
Here is the debug code modified to use ChgDbg.
CHGDBG
MONMSG MSGID(CPF0000) EXEC(GOTO DEBUG)
GOTO CMDLBL(SKIPDEBUG)
Debug:
STRDBG PGM(TST_EDIT) UPDPROD(*NO)
SkipDebug:
The SEP brings up the CL and stops on the PGM line. I click resume (f8) and doesn't stop on the breakpoint. When I start the program and do Step Over, I see that it does execute CHGDBG, so I don't know why it's not breaking there. CHGDBG fails so it continues to STRDBG.
Well, I guess I've put enough time into this for today. I have a program issue to resolve...
Thanks for the feedback,
Kurt

Are you allowed to change the CL? If so, you could condition the STRDBG so that it doesn't execute if the job is already in debug. I think a CHGDBG with no parameters will throw an error that you can monitor for to condition the STRDBG.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] RDP Debug when STRDBG active
While I love RDP, I haven't moved from STRDBG over to debugging from within RDP. I have a program issue and I thought I'd give RDP's debug a try.
We have test jobs setup that automatically run STRDBG to prevent updating of production libraries. Using StrDbg, when it hits that line I get an error I can ignore. Now, when I set the SEP in a RPG source, which is a program called by the CL that executes STRDBG (among other things), the debug view is never coming up. I tried adding a SEP to the CL before the STRDBG gets hit, and when that happens, I get an error and can hit ignore, but for some reason it's not entering the RPG code for me to debug. In the RPG program I set the breakpoint at the very beginning to make sure I wasn't running into an issue where the
statement I put a breakpoint on wasn't getting called. I just now set a
breakpoint in the CL after the STRDBG statement, and it doesn't break.
I've now spent about 45min on this and feel like I've had no success. I know our method of testing (using a mix of production and test libraries) isn't going to change. Are there any other suggestions as to what I might try?
