Rational Developer for System z

Creating a debug configuration for a local project

To debug a local z/OS® project, you need to set options in a debug configuration.
Before creating a debug configuration for a local z/OS project, do the following steps:
  1. Create a local z/OS project.
  2. In the project properties, specify the TEST compiler option and the /DE link option.
  3. Select the project and click Rebuild Project from the pop-up menu.
To create a debug configuration for a local z/OS project, do these steps:
  1. In the z/OS Projects view, select the local project.
  2. From the pop-up menu, select Debug as > Debug.
  3. In the Debug window, select Compiled Application from the list and then select New from the pop-up menu. The new configuration page opens with the name of the project you selected in the Project field.
  4. In the Name field, type a name for the debug configuration. One option is to give the configuration the same name as the project.
  5. In the Program field, type the fully qualified name of the program you want to debug. The program name must include the full path of the Rational® Developer for System z® workspace. You can click Browse to find the program name.
  6. Click Apply to save the debug configuration.
After you have saved the debug configuration, you can click Close to close the Debug window or Debug, to debug the program. If you select Debug, Developer for System z prompts you to switch to the Debug perspective.
