shiva,
after compiling the program, go to cics region and follow as mentioned below...

type as XPED <program name>.
put B in the line command of the program.
press Esc key to clear the screen.
then type the transaction id.
here it will takes you into program and you can go ahead by line by line or break pt to break pt.

Regards

But what abt the all entries like PPT, PCT and FCT entries. As in expeditor u can give any program name and expeditate as you need as it doesn't validate the load module name as in CICS.
If you want to check step by step execution of CICS program, the load module name of the program must be associated with a trasaction defined in CICS otherwise i think it won't recognise. You can check step by step execution of any program just by giving the load module name of that program as a name which is defined in CICS and then only i think you can do.

Hi

I would like to test an application program (APPLPGM - COBOL, CICS, DB2) using online xpeditor. My simulator program puts data in an MQ. A driver program gets data from the MQ and invokes my application pgm (using XCTL). But now, if i place break point in my application pgm and invoke a transaction using online xpeditor, i get MQ failed error. This MQ failed is because, the simulator pgm is trying to get the reply in the REPLY MQ within a particular time (MQ timeout error). Since i have placed break point in my application pgm, i get MQ timeout error.

Once i get MQ failed error, when i come out of xpeditor and give "XPED APPLPGM", i could see the data from the simulator to be passed to the application pgm.

Could any one of you help in tranferring control directly to the application pgm, when i invoke transaction from online xpeditor.

I believe, we could achieve my objective by giving proper data during setting of TRAP SUMMARY(1.6 option in XPED).

Note: APPLPGM, driver pgm and simulator pgm are in the same CICS region.

Please help me get this issue resolved.

Thanks in advance.

Rgds,
Priya.
