Course Description: This course describes how to use the ILE source-level debugger to interactively debug an RPG program. It shows how to set breakpoints (both unconditional and conditional), display the value of a data item, change the value of a data item, and step through a program one statement at a time. It covers all of the debugging functions provided by the debugger, both those implemented using debugging commands and those implemented using function keys.
After completing this course, you should be able to: • Define and use the terms related to the ILE source-level debugger • Name and describe the different debug views that can be generated • Start the ILE source-level debugger by placing your interactive job in debug mode • Set both unconditional and conditional breakpoints in a program • Display the current contents of a data item • Change the contents of a data item • Use a watch condition to stop program execution • Step through a program one statement at a time • Add programs to and remove programs from debug mode • Define and use abbreviations for a data item name, an expression, or a debug command
Audience: This course is intended for programmers who will be developing ILE RPG programs in the OS/400 environment.
