COBOL-Specific Differences

The following capabilities of Inspect are not supported in Native Inspect:

•

Setting breakpoints using the program-unit.label or program-unit.line-

number notation.

•

Using PICTURE and FORMAT clauses for displaying items.

•

Formatting records as an arbitrary type (DISPLAY AS command).

•

Setting breakpoints on statement ordinals.

Process Debugging With Native Inspect

Use Native Inspect to debug TNS/E native processes (and snapshot files) in either the

Guardian or HP NonStop Open System Services (OSS) environment.

The Native Inspect licensed object file is $SYSTEM.SYSnn.EINSPECT. Native Inspect

runs as a native, non-priv, high-pin process, separate from the process being

debugged (see Comparing Native Inspect to Debug on page 1-4).

Native Inspect must always be running in the same CPU as the process you want to

debug, as shown in Figure 1-1 on page 1-7.

Languages Supported by Native Inspect

•

TNS/E native C/C++

•

pTAL

•

TNS/E native COBOL

To debug code written in any other language for TNS/E systems or snapshot files

created on a TNS/R system, you must use Visual Inspect or Inspect.
