Exit with Abend and View Abend-AID Report

Xpediter/Eclipse allows users to request that a step terminate with a particular abend code.

To exit with abend

1. Click .
2. Select one of the following radio buttons:

   • Last - Requests that the step completion code reflect the last abend condition intercepted by Xpediter during a test session. This will occur even if you corrected the error condition and permitted the test to run to a normal termination.

     Warning

     The Exit with Abend Last is only available in batch. This command is successful only if a prior abend occurred.

   • User - Exits the application with a user-defined abend. The abend code is the letter U followed by a four-digit numerical value (such as Unnnn).
   • System - Exits the application with a system abend. The abend code is the letter S followed by three hex digits (such as Sxxx).
3. Click OK.

To view an Abend-AID report

In the Debug view, click  to open an Abend-AID report in an editor. The report can be generated any time the debug session is in a suspended state. An Abend-AID Snapshot report containing context-sensitive diagnostic information about an abend appears.

If no abend is present, the Snapshot report displays environment specific run-time characteristics during a test session. If you have the Abend-AID VSAM, IDMS, IMS, or DB2 options, the report also displays subsystem-related debugging information.
