To set a program breakpoint in native COBOL code

Restriction: Program breakpoints are supported in native COBOL only, and are not supported with nested programs.

You add program breakpoints to the source code in the following way:

  1. To display the Program Breakpoints (Native COBOL) window, click Debug > Windows > Program Breakpoints (Native COBOL).
  2. On the Program Breakpoints (Native COBOL) window, click New.
  3. Type the name of the source file, without the extension, and press Enter. For multi-program source files, to set a break for a sub-program, use its program-id.

    The program breakpoint is set.

Tip: To delete a program breakpoint, on the Program Breakpoints (Native COBOL) window, select the required breakpoint and click , or to delete all current program breakpoints, click .
