From a shell prompt, set the COB_LIVE_RECORD environment variable to the path and filename of the intended file:
export COB_LIVE_RECORD=path/and/filename
-
Run the application from the shell prompt:
cobrun [switch-params] program-name [program-params]
See the
cobrun Command topic for a full explanation of the syntax.
When the application terminates, a recording file is created at the path specified, and with the filename appended with
<processID>.mfr; for example
MyProg.1884.mfr. You can now use this file on another machine to step through the recorded execution.
