KEP: Keep Data Areas in a Keep Window

The KEP= option lets you specify one storage area to be kept in a Keep window whenever the specified program displays or executes from the source listing facility. The Keep window is not available on a Detailed Breakpoint display.

Display up to six items in a Keep window at a time. If you keep more than six items, CA InterTest for CICS initially displays the first six items that you selected but allows scrolling to other items using the PF19 and PF20 keys. When an item is removed from the window, another item is displayed. The KEP= option syntax allows only one request at a time. For each item kept, CA InterTest for CICS displays a single line identifying the keep request, followed by the first 12 bytes of storage in both hexadecimal and character format.

To keep data in a Keep window, enter:

KEP=(request) 
KEP=((request),T=termid)
request

Specifies one data area in CICS main storage to be displayed in a keep window. Use CORE syntax to specify the requested data area, but omit CORE=.

termid

Specifies the terminal that displays the requested area in a Keep window.

T=.ANY

Specifies the data area that will display in a Keep window on any terminal that displays or executes the program using LIST.
