1.11.4.2 Debugging with COBOL-IT COBOL

Perform the following steps to debug using COBOL-IT COBOL:
  1. Create or modify the imsdebug.desc configuration file at ${ART_IMS_CONFIG}.
  2. Restart your servers by using tmshutdown/tmboot or use "imsadmin" to reload configurations for online system.
  3. Next, start your transaction/program. It pause before the COBOL program runs and waits for you to start debugging.
  4. You can use vncserver to start a VNC environment.

    In VNC xterm, start debugging using the deet -p yourDEBUGID command. It starts the Deet graphic UI and attaches the COBOL program.

    For information about the Deet graphic UI, see COBOL-IT COBOL documentation.

    Note:

    When finished debugging, you may need to detach from the debugged program.
