Re: Newbie: debug a program running in batch

[Dan <dan27649@xxxxxxxxx>]

I wonder how much of the issue can be attributed to Eclipse vs. IBM.

So, I guess my cheat sheet for debugging in RDi is:
1) Exit RDi
2) Delete workspace
3) Start RDi
4) Set the SEP(s), ensuring correct object library and user ID
5) On the i, start a brand new job, ensuring correct library list (or
qualify your program call)

Even with all that, I find I'm still having problems.  It appears that the
first call to PGMA is "caught" by the debugger (I have a breakpoint set at
the first executable statement), but subsequent calls to PGMA in the same
CL program stream are not.  I just now confirmed this by debugging in the
green screen, which works properly.  I've wasted most of my day getting to
this point.  Not happy.
