To start a debugging session from an emulator session:
The STRDBG command sends a request containing connection information to the debug hub. The debug hub checks to ensure that the client is registered and verifies the TCP/IP address of the client with the registry. If the client is not registered or the TCP/IP address of the client is different from the values recorded in the registry, the STRDBG command runs as in previous releases (nongraphical mode).
If the client is registered, the debug hub starts the System Debugger program on the workstation and passes the connection information to the system debugger program that enables a direct connection between the system debugger client and the job that issued the STRDBG command.
Note that in this environment, the connection is directly between the System Debugger and the serviced job. In the other debugging environments, the debug server job is responsible for providing the debugging services to the requested job.
Note:To enable starting a graphical debugging session from your emulator, you must select the Debug Manager's Debug option for the desired system. Failure to select this option results in a nongraphical debugging environment.
Note: To return control of the program, from the emulator to the graphical debugger, enter DSPMODSRC.
Note: Normally, a informational windows appears upon successfully running a program object or class file unless the emulation session is not servicing a job.
