I fell across an explanation - there is a debug command called THREAD, which returns an error if run in a non-service job session:

Threads debugging is supported only for service jobs that are spawned with threads support.

Oy, more to learn!

Vern,

I recently wrote my first UDF, also in a service program.  To debug it I
started a service job on an interactive session, started debug on the
module then used the function in a STRSQL session.  It takes two
interactive sessions but it worked fine.  IIRC there was a post a few
weeks ago that pointed me in this direction.

I'm at V5R1. I have a couple UDFs defined in a *SRVPGM - don't know if
that
matters. When I try to debug, it never stops at the breakpoint.
