Stepping Over Program Objects or ILE Procedures

You can step over program objects or ILE procedures by using:

• F10 (Step) on the Display Module Source display
• The STEP OVER debug command

You can use F10 (Step) on the Display Module Source display to step over a called program object or ILE procedure in a debug session. If the next statement to be run is a CALL statement to another program object or ILE procedure, then pressing F10 (Step) will cause the called program object or ILE procedure to run to completion before the calling program object or ILE procedure is stopped again.

Alternately, you can use the STEP OVER debug command to step over a called program object or ILE procedure in a debug session. To use the STEP OVER debug command, type:

STEP number-of-statements OVER

on the debug command line. number-of-statements is the number of statements that you want to run in the next step before the application is halted again. If one of the statements that are run contains a CALL statement to another program object or ILE procedure, the ILE source debugger will step over the called program object or ILE procedure.
