Well, Scott got me wondering, what *does* DBGVIEW(*SOURCE) add to the
object? I took one of my programs and compiled it once for each of the six
possible DBGVIEW settings:
Program
Object Debug
DBGVIEW Size Data?
------- ------ -----
*NONE 360448 No
*STMT 417792 Yes
*SOURCE 430080 Yes
*COPY 430080 Yes
*LIST 577536 Yes
*ALL 589824 Yes
The help on Debug Data? states:
Indicates whether debug data was generated when this
module was created. If debug data exists, the module
may be debugged using the source debugger.
I think this is misleading, because the source debugger does not show any
source or listing for programs created with DBGVIEW(*STMT). It is a small
step better than *NONE in that it can still be debugged.
I'm sticking with DBGVIEW(*ALL).
