The
Net Express animserv utility used for debugging programs remotely has been replaced by
cobdebugremote (Windows) or
cobdebugremote32 (UNIX) (or
cobdebugremote64 when debugging 64-bit processes) in
Visual COBOL.
To debug locally-developed programs on a remote machine you must start
cobdebugremote (Windows) or
cobdebugremote32 (UNIX) (or
cobdebugremote64 when debugging 64-bit processes) before communication can be established. See the
Visual COBOL help for more information on cobdebugremote.
To debug remotely-developed programs on a remote machine:
-
You use a local
Visual COBOL installation to develop remote projects on a remote UNIX machine that has
Visual COBOL Development Hub installed.
-
To debug a COBOL project, the project must be compiled for debugging and you need to create a debug configuration.
For more information, see the section on
Remote Debugging in your
Visual COBOL
for Eclipse product help.
