Field Descriptions

Field

Description

WHEN

(Required) Entry specifies when interception is to occur. One of the following is required for activation.

AFTER

Intercept every request for transaction initiated at specified terminal after execution.

BEFORE

Intercept every request for transaction initiated at specified terminal before execution.

BOTH

Intercept every request for transaction initiated at specified terminal before and after execution.

TERMID

(Optional) Indicates the terminal from which application-generated requests are to be intercepted. Options follow:

  • Accept the displayed default, which identifies the local terminal which initiated the DBUG transaction.
  • Enter the terminal ID of a remote terminal.
  • Enter four asterisks (****) for monitor mode. In monitor mode, the Debugging Facility intercepts all CA Datacom/DB requests from all applications which meet the specified criteria.

OPTIONAL
CRITERIA

(Required for monitor mode, optional for remote and local modes.) Limits the interception of requests to those which meet the conditions specified by a conditional expression. Use one of the following forms:

  • A simple logical expression
  • Negation of a simple logical expression, that is to say an expression preceded by NOT
  • A compound expression made up of two simple logical expressions (or their negations) connected by AND or OR
  • A complex expression made up of three or more simple logical expressions (or their negations) connected by AND or OR, where priority for evaluation is expressed with parentheses

    Note: See Format Options for Criteria for format options and n for components of each format option.

REFRESH

(Optional) For a transaction that issues multiple WRITEs to the terminal without erase option, specify Y to cause the user's data to be rewritten to the screen each time after DBUG information is written to the screen, so that screen data is not overwritten. The default is N (no refresh).

Note: If you use the REFRESH option from one terminal that is operating with a multi-session manager product, results may not be as expected.
