Correct Your Source Code

When you decide to continue testing from a new version of your program, perform these steps:

1. Modify the program source code (outside CA InterTest for CICS).
2. Recompile or re-assemble the modified programs using the CA InterTest for CICS post‑processor, as discussed in the chapter "Source Listing Facility." The CA InterTest for CICS post‑processor automatically updates the CA InterTest for CICS Symbolic File and the Source Listing facility with the new version of the program.
3. Execute the CA InterTest for CICS New Program Copy option, if desired. This option is on the Program Monitoring menu (2.1). New Copy performs the following functions:
   • Resets the CICS entry in the PPT table to the program's new library address
   • Transfers all symbolically set breakpoints and other monitoring options to the recompiled program

Note: To recompile your program and keep the same breakpoints in the recompiled version, set breakpoints at paragraph names or labels, not at lines of executable code. Then use the CA InterTest for CICS New Program Copy function to transfer the breakpoints to the recompiled program. If you set breakpoints at lines of executable code, New Program Copy transfers the breakpoints to the same statement numbers or offsets in the recompiled program, which might not be what you want.
