Saving the information in the automonitor section to the log file

To save the following information in the log file, enter the SET AUTOMONITOR ON LOG command:

• Breakpoint locations
• The names and values of the variables at the breakpoints

The default option is NOLOG, which would not save the above information.

Each entry in the log file contains the breakpoint location within the program and the names and values of the variables in the statement. To stop saving this information in the log file and continue updating the automonitor section of the Monitor window, enter the SET AUTOMONITOR ON NOLOG command.
