The
cobdebugremote64 process runs on a remote machine and enables you to debug 64-bit applications on that machine using remote connections.
Restriction: The following applies to native code only.
Command Line Syntax:
To start the
cobdebugremote64 process, enter the following at a COBOL command prompt:
cobdebugremote64 option
Options:
- no options
- Starts the
cobdebugremote64 process and opens a random port for remote connections. The port number is displayed in the console.
- machine=name
- Specify the machine that
cobdebugremote64 is running on. Only valid with the
stop option.
- port
-
- port=nnnnn
- Specify the port to use to listen for connection requests.
- port=nnnnn-yyyyy
- Specify the range of ports to use. If port
nnnnn is in use, the next port is tried until a free port is found. If no free ports are found in the range, the utility returns
an error.
- repeat
- After the debug session has been completed, start listening for another connection. If no option is specified,
cobdebugremote64 exits after the debug session has completed.
- stop
- Causes the
cobdebugremote64 that is listening on the port to exit. Must be used with the
port option. This is only valid when
cobdebugremote64 is waiting for a connection.
Comments:
If you intend to remote debug callable shared objects (.so), you must set the COBIDY environment variable to the location of the
.idy file before you start
cobdebugremote32 or
cobdebugremote64.
