Re: What do we lack in debugging web apps on i ?

Great - thanks.

By the way, how did you manage to record the whole video without saying "Oh
s***!" at some inopportune moment? I have never managed it myself :-)

Here's a video I put together for web services with RPG-XML Suite (
www.rpg-xml.com), but the concept is the same for browser requests:

http://rpg-xml.com/video/WDSC_WEBSRV_DEBUG_SEP/WDSC_WEBSRV_DEBUG_SEP.html

It's things like this that can start justifying the price tag for RDp based
on immediate realization of time savings AND getting a production process
back up with minimal down time.

I use STRSRVJOB quite a lot, and was fine with it until I used SEPs
(Service
Entry Points) in RDi. Imagine being able to debug an RPG CGI program and
not have to know which job and instead only have to know the name of the
program you wanted to debug - that's what SEP's give you. Saves many
minutes in a day when dealing with a hard to locate bug.

You're not so old! Or at least you are still doing really cool stuff!

So

I
guess that would make you young at heart :-)

I don't seem to have any issues just using good old green screen and
STRSRVJOB for debugging web apps.

Must be an "age" thing :-)

Just curious if others have thoughts or a wish list on what they wish

we

had
for debugging web apps - RPG specifically - on IBM i?

I am very familiar with the WDSC/RDi/RDp debugger and have used SEP's a
lot,
but I sure would like to have SEP's available from the command line

also.

I have other wants, but haven't thought through them enough yet to

post.

Do others have ideas or wish list items?
