Specify Breakpoint Locations

To set breakpoint locations, complete the fields on the Breakpoint Locations panel as follows:

For a COBOL program, you can specify a paragraph name or data name, a statement number, or the hexadecimal displacement (offset) from the beginning of the program.
For an Assembler program, breakpoint locations can be Assembler labels, data names, or offsets.
For a PL/I program, breakpoint locations can be offsets or, if you have the PL/I symbolic option, PL/I labels or statement numbers. PL/I labels can be qualified by Procedure Name using the syntax: Procedure‑Name:Label.

Use the following rules when specifying information:

If you specify statement # 1, CA InterTest for CICS sets a breakpoint at the first executable instruction in a COBOL Procedure Division, Assembler CSECT, or PL/I procedure.
COBOL statements can contain more than one verb. In specifying statement numbers, indicate the verb at which the breakpoint should occur. A statement number of nnn or nnn indicates the first verb in the statement, nnn.1 indicates the second verb, nnn.2 indicates the third verb, and so on. For example, a statement number entered as 503.3 specifies a breakpoint at the fourth verb in statement number 503.
If you specify a COBOL, Assembler, or PL/I data name, breakpoints are set at every reference to that data name.
Enter an X in the All paragraph names field (COBOL), All Assembler labels field, All Labels field (PL/I), or All Procedure Names field (PL/I) to set breakpoints at all of the indicated locations.
Enter an X in the After field to stop after the statement executes.

Note: You can specify up to nine breakpoints.
