Overview of the SAS/C Cross-Platform Compiler and C++ Development System

Debugging Considerations

To take complete advantage of a cross-development environment, it is preferable to retain the source code on the host workstation. This avoids the added burden of maintaining two copies of the source on two platforms.

You can use the SAS/C Debugger running on the mainframe to debug source code located on your workstation. The SAS/C Debugger has the ability to access source code and debugging information located on the workstation. The debugger uses the SAS/C CSL run-time transients that are provided with the SAS/C Cross-Platform Compiler to establish client/server connectivity between the workstation and the mainframe. This capability is described in Cross-Debugging, Installing and Administering the NFS Client, and Using the NFS Client. SAS/C CSL provides many additional features, which are described in SAS Technical Report C-113, SAS/C Connectivity Support Library, Release 1.00.
