Progress
Debugger Guide
INPUT Command
Reads a Debugger command file and places the commands from the file in the Debugger command queue for execution.
SYNTAX
PARAMETERS
filename
The name of a text file that contains Debugger commands.
NOTES
- The Debugger executes commands from the command queue in the order they are read from the file. This is true even if a command in the queue passes control to a Progress procedure. When control returns to the Debugger, the remaining commands in the command queue execute before the Debugger gets input from the Debugger window.
- If there is a syntax error in a command file, the Debugger executes all commands prior to the bad command. All commands following and including the bad command are purged from the Debugger command queue, and the Debugger continues accepting input from the Debugger window.
- You can force the Debugger to immediately accept input from the Debugger window by invoking the break interrupt function (the Debug
Interrupt menu option). This function purges the command queue at any point in its execution, allowing the Debugger to accept input from the Debugger window.
