Re: Debug does not end program using Terminate.

OK so I think I found a way to handle this without too much trouble.

The first thing you do is add a SEP for the program you want to debug.

Then on the 5250 session call the program like normal. You then switch into
debug and can debug as normal.

If you need to stop due to an error in the code, you Alt + Tab back to the
5250 session you are running, then Shift + Esc, and then option 2. That
flops you out of what you were running, and also ends debug.

I guess it's not the perfect solution, but at least you can stop what's
running so that it just does not keep pouring over records making mistakes
the whole way.

Jason,

There are 3-ways to debug using RDI:

1.) SEP/Service Entry Points, my favorite way. Think StrSrvJob. (IBM i:
Debug job)
2.) Add job to debug configuration. Think StrSrvJob. (IBM i:
Debug Job)
3.) Interactive debug, need to set start up script. (IBM i:
Debug Interactive Application)
only this one, will stop the process of the job you are debugging,
when you hit "STOP".


Hope that helps a little bit...

I thought having it associated with the green screen was how I was doing
it.
