DBCS
When the DBCS setting is ON, you can specify DBCS characters in
the following portions of all the z/OS® Debugger commands:
- Commentary text
- Character data valid in the current programming language
- Symbolic identifiers such as variable names (for COBOL, this includes session variables), entry names, block names, and so forth (if the names contain DBCS characters in the application program).
When the DBCS setting is OFF, double-byte data is not correctly
interpreted or displayed. However, if you use the shift-in and shift-out
codes as data instead of DBCS indicators, you should issue SET
DBCS OFF.
If you are debugging in full-screen mode and your terminal is not
DBCS capable, the SET DBCS ON command is not available.
