Loading IBM Case Manager V5.2 uncompressed code

In certain situations like when debugging your custom widgets and actions, it is useful to load and view the uncompressed code for IBM Case Manager V5.2 for troubleshooting, application developing, or configuration purposes.

This article provides the steps to load the uncompressed code for Case Client, Case Manager administration client, and Case Builder.

There are also references on how to load the debug versions for IBM Content Navigator and how to turn on debugging by using the IBM Content Navigator administration tool.

Debugging uncompressed code in IBM Case Manager 5.2 – Case Client and the administration client:

In the Firefox address bar, add “&debug=true” at the end to load the uncompressed code.

For example: http://<host>:<port>/navigator?desktop=icm&debug=true

The same applies to Case Admin Client. For example: http://<host>:<port>/navigator?desktop=icmadmin&debug=true

Open the console for Firebug for Firefox to view the uncompressed code output.
 

Debugging uncompressed code in IBM Case Manager 5.2 – Case Builder:

In the Websphere Application Server deployed directory for Case Builder, modify the following file:

CaseBuilder.ear/CaseBuilder.war/WEB-INF/cbConfig.properties

Change CB_DEBUG to have a value of true, then access Case Builder as usual. This change enables the debug mode for Case Builder.

Open the Firebug console for Firefox to view the uncompressed code output.
