Debug the ACCT Application

Run the Enterprise Developer debugger to interact with the ACCT application running on the ESACCT enterprise server region.
  1. If you closed the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display, start it from the Debug view as follows:
    1. Right-click the COBOL Debugger thread.
    2. Click Show Rumba Terminal

    This opens the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display view and loads the CICS application in it.

    Note: If the display does not connect automatically:
    1. Click the New Rumba Mainframe Display button, New Rumba Mainframe Display, in the toolbar of the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display view.
    2. Specify the host name, localhost, and the TN3270 port number, 5239, for the ESACCT server.
    3. Click Connect.

      This connects the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display view to the ESACCT server and loads the CICS application in it.

  2. Press Ctrl+Alt+Z in the Rumba+ Desktop Mainframe Display view to clear the CICS login screen.
  3. Enter ACCT to execute the CICS application.

    In Eclipse, the debugger stops the execution of the process and positions the cursor in the Procedure Division of the ACCT00.cbl file.

  4. Step through the CICS application in the usual manner.
  5. To stop debugging, right-click the session in the Debug pane, and then click Terminate.
  6. To stop the server, right-click ESACCT in Server Explorer, and click Stop.
