Info Area

The info area is located at the top of the Source Listing Display screen under the Search field. The info area displays various windows depending on the value in the Display window field in the Source Listing Profile.

To change the information displayed in the info area, change the value in the Display window field.

Follow these steps:

On the Source Listing screen, either type profile in the command line and press Enter, or press PF4.
The Profile screen appears.
Specify the desired value in the Display window field, and press Enter.
The info area displays the information that you requested.

Notes:
- Alternatively, type 20-24 in the Option # field to display the required window. See Source Listing Option # Field Entries.
- Press PF9 to switch between the windows in order. PF9 does not switch between the windows when the Backtrace Facility is active.

The Display window field has the following values:

N (None)

Disables the info area so that you are able to see more of the source code.

T (Titles)

Displays the Title window in the info area. The Title window shows the title and header lines of your Source Listing Display, including the option and PF key descriptions. T is the default value for the Display window field unless changed during the product installation.

R (Registers)

Displays the Register window in the info area. The Register window shows the registers and attributes of your program.

K (Keep)

Displays the Keep window in the info area. The Keep window shows your program data items.

Note: If the AUTOKEEP option is ON, the window always switches to the Keep window whenever there are any data items to be displayed.

P (Program)

Displays the Program window in the info area. The Program window enables you to specify the load module name and view the symbolic file information.

Register Window

The Register window allows you to display and modify the contents of registers, and view an area where a register points to.

The following screen shows the Register window:

CA InterTest for CICS V9.1 - PROTSYM FILE ABEND DETECTED BREAKPOINT COMMAND ===> Program= COBDEMO Option # Stmt # Search= ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ R0-R7 3520A424 35209220 00100100 3520B5C8 3520A540 350F79E0 350F7998 B5200108 R8-R15 3520A5C8 3520A2C0 3651B15C 3651B904 3651B11C 352090D0 B651C242 00000000 Cond.

The Register window contains the following fields:

R0-R7
R8-R15: Displays the contents of registers at the current statement of the program.
Cond. Code: Indicates the current condition code.
Amode: Displays the current addressing mode of the program.
ExecKey: Displays the ExecKey for the current program if the CICS Storage Protection Option is active, depending on the option specified in the program definition.
TransIsolate: Displays the transaction isolation option of the current task if the CICS Transaction Isolation Option is active.

To modify the program registers, overtype the displayed contents with the desired value, and press Enter.
To view the area pointed to by a register, overtype the first displayed character of the register with either an at sign (@) for a 24-bit address, or with a percent sign (%) for a 31-bit address, and press Enter.

Program Window

The Program window enables you to specify the name of a composite load module, and set breakpoints for subprograms that belong to that composite load module.

The following screen shows the Program window:

CA InterTest for CICS V9.1 - PROTSYM FILE SOURCE LISTING DISPLAY COMMAND ===> Program= CSBIN25 Option # Stmt # Search= Load module= COBDEML Symbolic file: PROTSYM Timestamp: 2014-05-27 05:05 Language: IBMCOB 4.2 ---------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------- _ 000023 PROCEDURE DIVISION USING COMM-TEXT. _ 000024 MOVE ZERO TO DIVCT. ...

The Symbolic file, Timestamp and Language fields provide information about the subprogram specified in the Program field, not the load composite module in the Load module field.

Example

The following example shows how to enable composite monitoring and set unconditional breakpoints for duplicate subprograms:

Suppose you have two composite load modules: MAINMOD1 and MAINMOD2. Both modules contain a subroutine with the same name – SUBPROG. You want to set unique breakpoints for subroutine SUBPROG in each module.

Follow these steps:

Use LIST=MAINMOD1, type COMPOSITE in the command line, and enable composite monitoring. Repeat step 1 for MAINMOD2.
Change the current program name to SUBPROG.
Type 24 in the Option # field to access the Program window, change the load module name to MAINMOD1, and press Enter.
Set a breakpoint by typing U in the desired location.
You set an unconditional breakpoint for SUBPROG of MAINMOD1.
In the Program window, change the load module name to MAINMOD2, and press Enter.
Set a breakpoint by typing U in the desired location.
You set an unconditional breakpoint for SUBPROG of MAINMOD2.

When a source listing breakpoint occurs in a subprogram, the current load module is automatically set to the load module that owns the subprogram.
