Remote Debugging

Restriction: This topic applies to native COBOL only.

You can use Enterprise Developer to debug programs that are running on a different computer from the one on which you are developing applications.

On a remote Windows machine:

You can debug 32- or 64-bit programs that are running on a different computer from the one on which you are using to develop COBOL.

Either Enterprise Developer or Enterprise Server needs to be installed on the remote computer.

To debug remotely, the two systems must be networked using TCP/IP and must be set up appropriately.

On a remote UNIX machine:

With the Enterprise Developer UNIX Components feature installed on your remote machine, you can debug applications that run on UNIX in a similar way.

You cannot deploy the application from a Windows machine. You need to compile the application on the UNIX system, and deploy it before debugging.
