The following topics provide an overview of some of the different types of debugging you can do using
Visual COBOL
Starting the debugger automatically Invoke the debugger automatically when your application fails (JIT debugging), or when one of the start debugging library
routines (CBL_DEBUGBREAK or CBL_DEBUG_START) is called from your source code.
Debugging Windows services Describes the various techniques you can use to debug a Windows application running as a service. Options range from simple
library routine calls to just-in-time debugging.
Debugging using a core dump Describes the process of debugging using a core dump and provides scenarios in which this type of debugging is a good option.
Debugging using a live recording Create a recording file of your application running, which can then be replayed on another machine where all the usual debug
information can be queried. (Only available on certain platforms.)
Debugging Enterprise Server services and applications using a live recording Create a recording file of your application or service running on an enterprise server region, which can then be replayed on another machine where all the usual debug information can be queried. (Only available on certain
platforms.)
Debugging outside of Eclipse Debug native COBOL applications from outside of Eclipse, using the Character Animator debugger.
