At the start of execution of a CICS command

This example shows you the display at the start of execution of a CICS command. EDF displays the command, including keywords, options, and argument values.

A typical EDF display at start of execution of a CICS command is shown in Figure 1. You can display the information in hexadecimal or character form (and switch from one to the other) by pressing PF2. If character format is requested, numeric arguments are shown in signed numeric character format.

Figure 2 shows a similar screen for the start of execution of an EXEC SQL command running with Db2®.

In addition to options and values, the command is identified by its hexadecimal offset within the program. If the program was translated with the DEBUG translator option, the line number also appears, as shown in Figure 1. (See Defining translator options for information about this option.)

At the start of an EXEC SQL or EXEC DLI command, the body of the EDF display shows you the parameter list of the CALL to which your command translates. If a DLI command generates multiple CALL statements, you see only the last CALL statement.
