Using cobesdebug to Debug Services and Applications on Enterprise Server

There are several methods that you can use to debug services and applications that run on an enterprise server. The most flexible of these, and the one that we recommend, is the use of the Enterprise Server Dynamic Debugging facility.

The Enterprise Server Dynamic Debugging option enables you to attach to, and debug, any application or service running on an enterprise server. It requires no changes to the code of your program. It does however require that you turn on Dynamic Debugging for your enterprise server, that the enterprise server is running on the same machine and under the same user ID as Visual COBOL, that you compile for debug, and that you deploy the dictionary (.idy) files for your application.
