To prepare a PL/I application for debugging

  1. Edit the project properties to specify debug properties and to choose a debugger:
    • On the PL/I tab in your project's properties, ensure Compile for debug (-debug) is set to Yes.
    • On the Debug tab in your project's properties, specify the debugger to use and any debugger arguments to pass on at the command line. You can choose the default debugger, Java CodeWatch, or Visual Studio.
  2. Build your project or the entire solution.

    This compiles the project for debugging.

Note:
  • The Debug tab is not available for PL/I Mainframe Subsystem Applications as you debug them in Enterprise Server.
  • The settings you specify on this tab only apply to the selected configuration.
