It looks like both debuggers have been combined, now. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSZHNR_1.0.0/com.ibm.debug.pdt.zpcl.doc/topics/czdcmn004.html
"IBM z/OS Debugger supports two modes of remote debugging: Standard mode Uses the Program Information and Control Library (PICL) engine technology. With the PICL technology, part of the processing is performed in the client machine, which can reduce the overhead in the z/OS system. The following features are provided in the standard mode only: * Integration with IBM Fault Analyzer for setting deferred breakpoints * Support for 64 bit Enterprise PL/I for z/OS Version 5 * Support for 64 bit C/C++ feature of z/OS Debug Tool compatibility mode Uses the remote debug engine from the former Debug Tool for z/OS to perform all host debugging tasks. This mode supports all features that were available in Debug Tool for z/OS. IBM z/OS Debugger is progressing towards one remote debug mode based on Debug Tool compatibility mode. In support of this direction, Debug Tool compatibility mode, when available in the user interface, is selected by default for V14.1.2 or later. Any existing launches, property groups, or updated preferences remain unchanged." I could, of course, not be understanding the whole picture. ________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> on behalf of Joseph Reichman <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, September 9, 2019 3:06 PM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Part number for RDZ To debug amode amode 64 xl c\c++ you need rdz or idz It seems to come with passport advantage meaning I’m guessing a working stiff can afford it I have passport advantage been trying for over two days to find out the price As I said in my previous post IBM which seems to think changing names drums up buss Wastes more time in labor costs by sales people not knowing what you are talking about > On Sep 9, 2019, at 4:56 PM, Frank Swarbrick <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hmm.
