Resume Execution from a Specific Location

To resume program execution from the breakpoint location where your program is stopped, the source listing screen must be displayed. Press Clear from any CA InterTest for CICS screen until the breakpoint screen reappears.

Enter the GO command on the command line or Press PF5 to continue from the current breakpoint. Execution continues until the program is halted at another breakpoint or the task completes. If you do not want to halt the program at any of your preset breakpoints, you can enter the RUN command on the command line and the program will continue execution from the current breakpoint and preserve all preset breakpoints.

If you are stopped at an automatic breakpoint, you must first correct the error that triggered the breakpoint before continuing execution from that point. Or, you can go around the error and continue execution from another location.

To resume program execution from another location, follow these steps:

1. Display the instruction where you want to resume execution. For more information, see Display Your Source Listing.
2. Type g to the left of that instruction.
3. Press Enter.

or

1. Enter GO label or GO linenumber on the command line and press enter

Program execution resumes from that instruction label or line number.

The following example shows how to resume execution from a location prior to an automatic breakpoint. This is useful if you corrected a record or dynamically modified an incorrect file name and now want the program to reread the record or file.
