Change Breakpoints - CICS

The process for changing breakpoints is different for CICS and batch applications. The following procedure describes how to change a breakpoint in a CICS application.

Follow these steps:

  1. Right-click the blue circle to the left of the line that contains the unconditional breakpoint that you want to change, or double-click the breakpoint in the Breakpoints view, and select Configure Breakpoint in the dialog.

    The Update Line Breakpoint dialog opens.

  2. Select Conditional breakpoint under Breakpoint Type.

    The other fields become active.

  3. Click the Variable List button, and select TASKNUM from the Variable List.
  4. Click the Literals button and change the literal value to the new value where you want the breakpoint.

    The following illustration displays the finished dialog showing a conditional variable at TASKNUM=x'00003c'.

    On this screen you can change to a conditional breakpoint.

  5. Click Finish.

    The dialog closes and the breakpoint displays in the Breakpoints view as a conditional breakpoint.

  6. Repeat steps 1 through 5, and make statements 480 and 482 unconditional breakpoints.
  7. Change the breakpoint at statement 484 back to an unconditional breakpoint.
