Create the .option file to debug Sales Center client
The .options file contains information about which plug-ins to debug and trace. It is possible to create a .options file manually, but it is difficult to remember all the different plug-ins and what debug options are available for each one. This section uses the IBM Sales Center development environment to help you generate the .options file. This is only required when you enable tracing and debugging for the first time or when you want to add new plug-ins and regenerate the .options file.
To create a .options file:
Procedure
- Enable tracing in the IBM Sales Center development environment.
- Click Run > Sales Center to launch the IBM Sales Center client and generate the .options file.
- Find the .options file in the WCDE_INSTALL\mscworkspace\plugins\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.pde.core\Sales Center directory. The .options file should be similar to the following example:
#Master Tracing Options com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui/debug/tracing=false com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/dumpLocation/initialdelay=120 com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/request/dump=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales/debug/logging/roles/activities=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales/debug/logging/roles=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.services/debug/logging=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.services/debug/versioning=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/response/dump=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/logging=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales/debug/logging/roles/registry=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/request=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales/debug=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui.impl/debug=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui/debug/logging=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.services/debug=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui/debug/logging/extensions=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui.impl/debug/logging=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.services/debug/tracing=false com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui/debug=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/tracing=false com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/dumpMaxFiles=200 com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/dumpLocation/cleanintervel=600 com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/dumpLocation/clean=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/dumplocation=debug/bodmessages/ com.ibm.commerce.telesales/debug/logging=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui.impl/debug/logging/extensions=true com.ibm.commerce.telesales.ui.impl/debug/tracing=false com.ibm.commerce.telesales.core.impl/debug/bod/response=true
- Close the IBM Sales Center client and the development environment.
