KnowledgeBase 00116: Debugging Procs

This article was originally published as a Tip of the Week.

QM includes a simple Proc debugger, mainly intended for use when migrating applications.

Entering Debug Mode

The Proc debugger is entered by use of the DEBUG command within a Proc. This command is only valid on Windows QMConsole sessions and on AccuTerm using a terminal type with a -at suffix. This is because the debugger requires support for screen save and restore.

The Debug Screen

The Proc debugger shows a portion of the Proc around the current line and also the content of the PIB, POB, SIB and SOB buffers. The currently active buffers are highlighted.
