System Debug Reference Manual

DEBUG intrinsic 

Enters Debug.

Callable from:  NM, CM

Syntax 

     DEBUG;

Discussion 

The DEBUG intrinsic calls Debug from an interactive program.  The
intrinsic call acts as a hard-coded breakpoint.  Execution of the calling
program is halted, and the Debug prompt is displayed.

If the call is made from a batch program, it is ignored.

Refer to the MPE XL Intrinsics Reference Manual (32650-90028) for
additional discussion of this intrinsic.

Condition Codes 

This intrinsic does not return meaningful condition code values.

Example 

The following example is a code fragment from a Pascal program.  It
declares DEBUG as an intrinsic and then calls it.

     PROCEDURE call_debug;

        procedure debug; intrinsic;

     BEGIN
        debug;
     END;
