1.11.4.1 Debugging with Micro Focus COBOL

Perform the following steps to debug using Micro Focus 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. Start "anim" in the current or a new terminal; the "anim" should remain in waiting state.
  4. Start your transaction/program. This causes "anim" to attach to the to the COBOL program. and is ready for debugging.

Note:

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