Sounds good, but I really think you almost had it. We have user screens
that we go thru and do rating. I debug my job starting at the first entry
screen and always get the '"QT3REQIO.STATEMENT". Inside the tab, it says
"No debug data available"'. That message is not an error, just doesn't
have debug data for the screen I am sitting on. I hit the Resume(green
triangle button or in RUN drop down menu). Then I start going thru the
user screens, once a screen calls that program it comes up in RDI debug
for me to work with.
I wish somehow they could get Set Service Entry points to work with OPM
language, but I understand they want us to change everything to ILE. Wish
it was as easy as change it to ILE and everything worked the same, but
that is not always the case yet.

The job in question cannot be submitted... it drives a user screen.
I'm of the opinion that if it takes that many steps to get RDi to work,
I'll continue to use STRISDB.

Re: [WDSCI-L] Debug a CL program
Greg,
As far as the No Debug data available, you might try to recompile your
CLP
with the option(*srcdbg) keyword, then (not sure how in rdi) specify
opmsrc(*yes) on the STRDBG command.

Jeff,
The OP asked about debugging in RDi, your response is not an RDi/WDSc
answer.

Stupid Question:
Can I use RDi to debug a non-ILE CL program?
If so, how do I go about doing that?
Greg,
If you want to debug a batch OPM program, the easiest way is to submit it
on hold--e.g., SBMJOB xxxxxxxx HOLD(*YES). I usually do this by way of the
*JOBD with which I'm submitting (e.g., CHGJOBD smbjobdname HOLD(*YES)--or
I create a *JOBD in my library with the same name as the one used by the
submitting process). Then I go into the Debug perspective and select
'Debug Configurations...'. Then I set up a new "IBM i: Debug Job". I code
the Job Name and User and set the Number to * (a single asterisk); then I
specify the program I want to debug; and click 'Debug'. RDi (and the host
server jobs) see a job for the user on hold, the job is released and RDi
stops on the first executable statement in the program. This isn't quite
as good as a SEP, but it works well for me when I have to debug OPM
programs.
One additional point to make: someone suggested converting the program to
CLLE and recompiling. You have to be careful with that as it can impact
override scoping. The scoping of overrides is the area that really takes
some thought when converting an application to ILE. (That and *NOTIFY
messages no longer server much purpose--at least not the same purpose.)
