SET ASSEMBLER ON/OFF command

A disassembled compilation unit is a CU that was not compiled with the TEST compiler option and has not been used as the operand of a LOADDEBUGDATA command. The SET ASSEMBLER ON command enables a subset of the functions enabled by the SET DISASSEMBLY ON command. The following behavior is enabled for disassembled compilation units by the SET ASSEMBLER ON command:

  • You can stop in a disassembly CU by using the commands:
    • AT APPEARANCE *
    • AT APPEARANCE name
  • You can display the names of disassembled CUs by using the following commands:
    • DESCRIBE CUS
    • LIST
    • LIST NAMES CUS
    • QUERY SOURCE

OFF
Disables the display of data that is useful while you debug an assembler program.
ON
Enables the display of data that is useful while you debug an assembler program.

Usage notes

  • You can also use the SET DISASSEMBLY ON to control the display of information that is useful while you debug an assembler program.
  • You can use this command in remote debug mode.

Example

To include disassembly compile units in the list of compile units displayed by the LIST NAMES CUS and DESCRIBE CUS commands, enter the following command:

SET ASSEMBLER ON ;

The next time you enter the LIST NAMES CUS or DESCRIBE CUS command, the disassembly compile units are displayed in the list of compile units.
