Essential for the Professional Programmer


It Eases Maintenance

  • Speed up understanding of complex logic
  • Navigate complex, undocumented apps like a breeze
  • 'Surf' your code with the powerful hyperlinks
  • Create colorful, professional looking documentation!

Maintenance is time consuming and boring. Big programs, old code, no fresh documentation, obscure field names and indicators... It's easy to overlook something in the maze of objects, files, and changes made over the years.

Don't worry. VISUAL Debugger is here to help. It will reveal code and data structures, object relationships, record formats, remote source code and much more. So you don't waste your time figuring out what all that code is there for. It will save you lots of time, so you can finish any assignment faster.

Very Easy-to-use Graphical Interface
You'll love VISUAL Debugger at first sight. No commands to memorize. And maximum power: Program Navigator, customizable ColorCoding, RPG and CL indentation, comment hiding, Back/Forward buttons and hyperlinks, advanced FIND, dead code detection, reusable Projects, customizable keyboard templates, and more. Now you have a clearer picture of your applications, and you can navigate them at top speed
Application Explorer & Data Dicitionary
The Application Explorer gives you a navigable tree diagram of your applications, allowing you to drill right down to code or object attributes in programs, files, and modules many levels away, with just one click
The Data Dictionary gives you a list of all variables used in each module, revealing current values, sub-field structures, and more.

Solves Problems in Running Jobs

  • Solve live software problems on the fly
  • Fix problems remotely
  • 'Increase application availability
  • Prevent errors from freezing your apps

VISUAL Debugger is great at testing, but also lets you start debugging any running job (interactive or batch) at any time, giving you lots of information (including internal, restricted job data) so you can solve problems quickly.

It even allows you to execute commands on the debugged job, like changing its LIBL. And you can do all that without canceling the job, so you can diagnose, report, document, and even fix unexpected problems like never before.

Live Software Solving Problems
Capture local and remote iSeries batch and interactive jobs at any time. See the end-user screen up to the latest keystroke. See and change LDA, LIBL, QTEMP, and more. See running source code, variable values, and control the execution with point-and-click simplicity. Get internal job information, error descriptions, and even execute any command to solve the problem, without canceling the job. All with an iSeries-based security system that makes your iSeries safer than ever.
Solve Problems over the Internet
Solving problems remotely is easy with VISUAL Debugger. The exclusive NiceLink will give you connectivity choices and extreme speed, even with slow modem connections. Access all your iSeries from a single PC. And what if the line fails? No problem. The Smart Recovery technology will let you regain control of your debugged job after failures, right to the same source line where you were before.

Debug and Test at Warp Speed

  • Increase programmer productivity
  • Improve program quality easily
  • Reduce testing times, project costs and risks
  • Avoid errors in production code

Oh, yeah, we almost forgot! We are talking about a debugger here. In fact, the most advanced iSeries debugger you’ve ever seen. VISUAL Debugger will give you unprecedented power and control of your testing environment.

Empower yourself with VISUAL Debugger, the ultimate tool for the professional programmer. Save time, ease your daily tasks, meet deadlines effortlessly, and feel that good old pleasure of programming back again

Advanced Debugging Tools
See variable values with a click (as tooltips or in a window) in hex or character formats, change variables, indicators and fields, execute statements one by one or N times, Run to Cursor, AutoDebug, Step Into and Over, set multiple conditional breakpoints, stop the program whenever a condition is met, regardless of where, and much, much more.
Test Coverage Tracking
The Test Coverage tracker helps you assure that all logical paths in a program have been properly tested. No changes to your source required! Avoid unpleasant surprises and improve program quality.
Variable Watchlist
See how variables change as your program executes. Ask VISUAL Debugger to stop the program whenever a variable changes, regardless of the statement where that happens, and much more
