Replaying the Trace

After the dialog is recompiled and executed with the selected trace options, a trace replay can be viewed, printed, or saved in a queue. If the dialog execution terminates abnormally, the replay shows the sequence of execution right up to the termination; CA ADS Trace preserves the sequence in the replay, without any rollback.

CA ADS Trace traces not only the specified dialog, but also all subroutines through which dialog control passes. While the dialog is executing, the Trace option captures and highlights information about DML command processing and the DML error status. It can also trace the execution-time contents of any exhibited dialog work record, database field, or map variable.
