Debug Alert (-debugalert) Startup Parameter

Prior to Progress Version 9.1C, the Debug Alert (-debugalert) startup parameter provided access to 4GL stack trace information when an error occurred during an interactive session. Progress displayed an alert box with a help button that displayed a dialog box containing a scrollable, read-only 4GL stack trace for the current Progress session.

In Progress Version 9.1C, the Debug Alert (-debugalert) startup parameter also provides access to 4GL stack trace information when an error occurs during a batch session. Progress records the 4GL stack trace information in the procore file.

In Progress Version 9.1D, the Debug Alert (-debugalert) startup parameter, when used with the new -clientlog startup parameter, provides access to 4GL stack trace information during a session and writes this information to a log file you specify. In version 9.1C, the information was written to the procore file, in Version 9.1D, information is written to the log file you specify with the -clientlog startup parameter. If you do not use -clientlog to specify a log file name, messages are not written to a log file.
