Sorry, I asked the wrong question earlier. What I meant to ask was what does everyone use for a 4GL debugger? I thought that either OAT or Data Studio had Stored Procedure Debuggers, so I was wondering if either had a 4gl debugger, or if there was some other tool people used. Thanks!

If you have R4GL you can use the IBM Informix 4GL Interactive Debugger. I always just debug using the system debugger. Art Art S.

(goddamn laptop touch-pad keeps getting under my thumb) Informix RDS comes with a supplied debugger called fgldb. It's a simple and old-school character debugger but is quite effective. FourJs comes with a debugging mode of sorts, but in later generations of their products it's actually been dumbed-down a fair bit. It is now intended to be used on the end of a pipeline, driven from the universal ddd debugger of Linux, or secretly in the background driven by their "Genero Studio" IDE. So even though it's a fairly dumb command-line character based debugger, you can still get by with it. Does all I need which is to understand my occasionally cryptic code ;-) Aubit and all the rest, can't tell ya.
Aubit use gdb/ddd as front end to debug the code. Andrew Clarke escreveu: >> Sorry, I asked the wrong question earlier. What I meant to ask was what >> does everyone use for a 4GL debugger?
