when testing a new application, is there anyway to just look at the variables for that application - without putting a stop in your application somewhere?
The variables for your application are members on your ISPF profile PDS. I would think there would be some simple way in ISPF 7 to display them.. but all I seem to be able to display are ISR application variables.
I looked in the manual.. but the example they give is for ISR.
Thanks for anyone who can point me to something I can read on how to do it? or just tell me if it is simple enough and I'm just missing it?
thanks. |

There's an option in the dropdown to change the application ID, and one of the 3.x functions allows you to browse tables, sorry haven't got z/OS running right now, so cannot be mere helpful. |

If you want to look at profile variables, then the 7.4 'Dialog table' might be used.
i.e:
Code: |
Option ===> 1
1 Display row 3 Modify row 5 Display structure
2 Delete row 4 Add row 6 Display status
Table Name . . MLC0PROF Open tables . . nowrite (NOWRITE or WRITE or
blank for no TBOPEN)
Row identification: Current row . :
By row number . . 1 (* = current row) |
Though I'm not sure how it will display no-shared tables is other screens, if at all. |

thanks. I looked at 7.3 for drop down options - could find nothing to change the application.
the problem is - yes, i can invoke the function that takes me to my application - but then - how do I get back to the test panel without exiting my application? then I'm back to ISR when I go to 7.3 (I've tried).
so, thanks, Willy, I will check out displaying the variables thru the table option. |

I think that setting is outside of the dialog test panels. You need to change the applid before entering dialog test. |

Per User's Guide, vol 2, use the Options pulldown from the primary option menu panel. |

The Table option of ISPF 3 worked! once I figured out to display extension variables!
so much easier. and direct.
Thanks! |
