Native Inspect Manual (H06.13+, J06.03+)

mask
A 64-bit mask that will be ANDed with the contents of native-address before the test is
performed with value.
operator
The operator is one of the following strings:
• !=
• ==
• <
• >
value
An integer.
Syntax of expression
expression
A list of operands and operators which, when evaluated, result in a number or a string. Valid
operators are those accepted by the source language in which the target being debugged is
compiled.
Native Inspect does not support expressions in pTAL. To specify pTAL expressions, use C-style
syntax:
COBOLC-StylepTAL
AX = A1/A2 + A3 * A4x = y;x := y;
FLAG = (A NOT EQUAL TO B)flag = (a != b);flag := (a<>b);
Using C-style pointers:pTAL pointer example:
To display the address, enter:
int x[0:9];
int .xptr;
p xptr
...
@xptr ;= @x[0];
...
To dereference ptr (display what
xptr points to), enter:
p *xptr
Variable names are not case-sensitive.Variable names are case-sensitive.Variable names are not
case-sensitive.
(To make Native Inspect recognize
pTAL variable names, use the set
Command (environment) with the
language ptal option.)
For additional COBOL considerations, see Evaluating Expressions (page 53).
Other valid expressions are:
$, $$
refers to the last two values printed. For example, print $$ redisplays the next-to-last value
printed.
$number
refers to results of previous print commands, which are saved on the value history list. For
example, print $1 redisplays the previous value printed (the output associated with $1),
and print $5 redisplays the output associated with $5.
