Preparing for an OLTand IBM Distributed Debugger session on workstations

Object Level Trace (OLT) enables you to monitor the flow of a distributed application, and to seamlessly debug client and server code from a single workstation. A typical OLT session consists of the following steps:

  1. Compiling application code for OLT and the IBM Distributed Debugger
  2. Enabling OLT for Component Broker, or
    Enabling OLT and the IBM Distributed Debugger for WebSphere Advanced Single Server Edition, or
    Enabling OLT for WebSphere Advanced Edition and Enterprise Extensions
  3. Tracing a distributed application.
  4. Setting method breakpoints on the trace
  5. Running the Debugger with OLT
