Dumb debug question of the week.

  My guess is that you cannot have the debugger see anything like a
DLYJOB CL command or a DSPF wait, since these are low level system-type
tasks that the debugger will not see.  The debugger wants to go against
executing calc lines.  You have to put a debug point on a real executing
line, even if you have to condition it. 

  A better method (from the green screen debugger) may be to SETATNPGM
QCMD, then start running your interactive session.  Once you are deep
into the app, and when you get to some EXFMT before the section you want
to debug, press the Attention key (the Escape key on a PC keyboard).
Then from the command line that displays, you can the STRDBG cmd or use
DSPMODSRC to set debug points within the program.  And you're off to the
races.

 You might want to put the debug point on the CALL to your "Long Wait
Pgm".  That should be an executable line.

Good Morning,
	My mind is just not making the connections this morning.

I have an interactive session going that I want to debug. The job has a
call to a program called DBGwait which puts it into a wait state. When I
start My iSeries Distributed Debugger it just keeps sitting there when I
give it the job name of my interactive session.  

	The program has been compiled with *SRCDBG 

Anybody have a clue what I am doing wrong

Thanks


Bob Anderson
