To debug a native COBOL program running remotely

Before you can debug a program on a remote UNIX machine, ensure that the remote machine has an X Window implementation installed and running, so that the output of the remote program can be viewed on your local machine.

1. Set up remote debugging.
2. On your local machine, build your project for debugging.
3. Configure your project for debugging when the application is running on the remote machine as follows:
   1. Navigate to your project's properties - click Project > Properties.
   2. Go to the Debug tab.
   3. Click Start external program and specify the full path on the remote machine, and the name of the executable. For example:
      • On Windows, specify: c:\path\myapp.exe
      • On UNIX, specify: home/path/appexecutable

      Alternatively, to attach the debugger to a program running remotely, click Wait for debuggable attachment and choose the means by which you want to attach to the remote application.

   4. Check Use remote machine.
   5. Fill in the IP address or name of the remote machine.
4. Click Debug > Start Debugging .
