Important: Reverse Debug and Live Recording functionality is licensed and installed separately from
undo.io. You can enable reverse debug functionality by downloading the extension from the
Micro Focus Marketplace.
This functionality is only supported on the following platforms:
- Red Hat Linux (x86 and x64)
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 12 SP2 (x64 only)
- Ubuntu Linux 20.04.x (LTS) (x64 only)
Additional restrictions apply. For details, see the
Reverse Debug and Live Recording topic in the
Known Issues and Restrictions section of this documentation.
Windows Platforms: To use this option, you must connect to
Micro Focus Enterprise Developer UNIX Components running on one of the supported UNIX platforms listed above.
Use a COBOL Live Recording debug configuration to debug a live recording file (.mfr file). Once the recording is loaded into the debugger, you can step forwards and backwards to follow the execution.
Unlike a conventional debug scenario, debugging a live recording file only allows you to step forwards/backwards through the
path that the application took when it was recorded; you cannot change the execution path within the debug engine.
- COBOL Project
- The project to use while debugging.
- Connection Properties
- If your live recording file is located on a
Micro Focus Enterprise Developer UNIX Components, specify the connection details.
- Live Recording File
- The name and location of a live recording file to debug.
- Executables Location
- The directory that contains the application executable files that were run to create the live recording file.
- Source Files
- The location of the application source files that were used to build the executables.
- Debug Symbols
- The location of the debug symbols (.idy) files that were generated when the executable files were built.
