Debug Tracing builder
Use the Debug Tracing builder to trace a variable or a specific action in a model. This builder writes trace information to a log file. You can review the logged trace output after you run a model. By default, this log file is stored at the following location:
web_app_dir\proj_name\WEB-INF\logs\debugTracing.txtIn a Debug Tracing builder, you have the following options:
- Tracing the value of a variable
- Specify:
- Trace All Actions
- Enable to ensure that the variable is traced through the entirety of the application.
- Additional Debug Output
- Enter the name of the variable you want the builder trace.
Run the model and open debugTracing.txt to examine the log of your trace.
Note: You can place multiple Debug Tracing builders in a model if you want to trace the value of several variables.
- Tracing a specific action
- Specify:
- Trace All Actions
- Disable to prevent tracing of all model actions.
- Action to Trace
- Use the picker to select the action you want to trace (for example, method or page).
Run the model and open debugTracing.txt to examine the log of your trace.
