Course Description: This course describes the facilities provided by the OS/400 system for interactively debugging an OPM (original program model) program.
The course begins by showing how to put your interactive job in debug mode, a special testing environment used to debug a program. Next, you will see how to set and use breakpoints. The course then shows how to display and change the contents of a program variable while interactively debugging a program. This is followed by a discussion on tracing program execution. The course ends by showing how to display and change debug mode attributes.
After completing this course, you should be able to: • Put your interactive job in debug mode • Set breakpoints in a program • Display the current contents of a data item • Change the contents of a data item • Have the system perform a program trace during the execution of a program • Display and change debug mode attributes • Add programs to and remove programs from debug mode
Audience: This course is intended for anyone who will be writing CL programs. This audience consists primarily of application programmers, but may include other people who use CL commands, such as system operators.
Prerequisites: This course assumes that you have a working knowledge of basic OS/400 concepts and facilities. You can satisfy this prerequisite by successfully completing the courses in the following series:
· Using an iSeries System
The course also assumes that you have a basic understanding of CL programming concepts, know how to declare and use variables in a CL program, and know how to control the flow of execution in a CL program. You can satisfy these prerequisites by successfully completing the earlier courses in this series:
· Introduction to CL Programming
· Variables and Built-In Functions
· Controlling Command and Program Flow
Course Outline: Introduction to the OS/400 Debugging Facilities Using Breakpoints Displaying and Changing Variables Tracing Program Execution Displaying and Changing Debug Mode Attributes
