Re: SV: SV: Debug Tool know how...
Sorry! I'm not a direct user of the product. I'll suggest you contact IBM SW Support such tah they can help you with details. Date: Wed, 5 Mar 2008 14:09:53 +0100 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: SV: SV: Debug Tool know how... To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Yes, I have looked into it. But my problems is like: The manual says You can use the DT variable %CU or %BLOCK in place of names of current items, e g AT CHANGE %CU:VARIABLE-NAME , etc. But I get syntax error for that and so on. I also get other errors regarding qualification of variables. The manual is very short on syntax and its restrictions. So I need some advice from someone that have used DT a lot. Or whatever examples of DT code that can be found.

Hi! There's also a Redbook SG24-7372-00 published June 2007 called IBM Application Development and Problem Determination Tools V7 for System z which can be rather handy to have a look at sometimes. Have you tried it? It's free to download from IBM. Cheers Timur Date: Wed, 5 Mar 2008 13:22:54 +0100 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: SV: Debug Tool know how... To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Thank You, but I already have the Reference manual and the User Guide... ..and I have read them both :(( (Or at least big parts of them.) Unfortunately the behaviour of DT doesn't correspond to the manuals (at points where I have found info about) - plus that there is a lot that is not explained.

If You have some examples of AT CHANGE and LIST with qualified variables I would be pleased if You can send any to me. BTW, I'm trying to use this code in pre-saved PDS-members to be run automatically in DT, if that make any difference. Thanks, Thomas Fully qualified names work for me: AT LABEL CXXMU21::CXXMU21:CXXMU21:MAIN-OUTPUT Where CXXMU21 is my load module name. This also works for me: AT LABEL %BLOCK:MAIN-OUTPUT And so does AT LABEL %CU:MAIN-OUTPUT But not: AT LABEL %CU:%BLOCK:MAIN-OUTPUT and AT LABEL %LOAD::%CU:%BLOCK:MAIN-OUTPUT Thanks! Looks like what I'm coding. (Except that I use AT CHANGE.) Is that C++ modules ?

I've found that the Debug Tool 7.1 seems to allow at most one variable-based name, provided it's the first name reference in a series of name references. E.g., for a variable named xyz, in block blk1, in compile unit comp1, in load module lm1, you can successfully follow AT CHANGE with: lm1::comp1:blk1:xyz [no debug tool variables] %block:xyz[block qualification variable] %cu:blk1:xyz [compile unit qualification variable] %cu:xyz [compile unit qualification, omitting block specification] %load::blk1:xyz[load module qualification, with block name] %load::comp1:xyz[load module qualification, with compile unit name] %load::comp1:blk1:xyz [load module qualification, with both compile unit and block name] Any attempt to precede a debug tool variable reference with either another debug tool variable reference, or an explicit load module / compile unit / block name seems to fail. I'm not sure whether this is a feature or a problem; as you've noted, the documentation leaves some room for interpretation. For what it's worth, in COBOL, the compile unit name is the first PROGRAM-ID in the source module. The block name is the same as the compile unit name, unless you are referencing variables defined in nested programs. A variable defined in a nested program's DATA DIVISION would have the block name of the nested program's PROGRAM-ID, but would have the compile unit name of the outermost program's PROGRAM-ID. Most typically (i.e., in the absence of nested programs), compile unit name and block name are the same, and you would normally only specify one of the two. Load module name is, of course, the member name of the executable program in the load library.
