Chapter 13. Using Collaboration Debugger Collaboration Debugger is a workbench perspective that allows you to specify points at which a collaboration process should pause while executing, and allows you to inspect the data of the flow being processed at those points. To debug a collaboration, you must do a number of tasks such as attach Collaboration Debugger to a collaboration object, configure breakpoints, manage the progress of the flow through the collaboration, and inspect the data of the flow. The following characteristics describe the use of Collaboration Debugger: v You only have to perform some of the tasks a single time. For instance, you typically only have to attach Collaboration Debugger to the collaboration object once. v You typically perform some tasks multiple times. For instance, you usually manage the progress of the flow multiple times during the course of its processing. v You might not perform some tasks during the processing of every flow. Due to the non-linear nature of debugging a collaboration, the sections of this chapter describe the interfaces of the perspective or certain tasks that you perform in the order in which you most commonly use the interfaces or perform the tasks. "Debugging a collaboration" on page 277 describes the workflow of debugging a collaboration to provide a more linear guide to the interfaces and tasks. This chapter contains the following sections: v "Starting Collaboration Debugger" v "Collaboration Debugger interface" on page 261 v "Attaching and detaching Collaboration Debugger" on page 266 v "Using the collaboration template editor" on page 268 v "Working with events" on page 270 v "Working with breakpoints" on page 271 v "Performing debugging operations" on page 274 v "Working with variables" on page 276 v "Debugging a collaboration" on page 277 Starting Collaboration Debugger To start Collaboration Debugger, do the following: 1. Select Start > Programs > IBM WebSphere Business Integration Express> Toolset Express> Administrative > System Manager. 2. Select Window > Open Perspective > Other from the menu bar. 3. Select Collaboration Debugger from the list of perspectives and then click OK. The workbench starts and appears. Figure 10 on page 40 shows the Collaboration Debugger perspective and "Collaboration Debugger interface" on page 261 describes the interface and its elements. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2001, 2004 259
