Testing EFS code

[xoprofittaker]

Is their any way to execute EFS code line by line and see what values are being returned, like you can in visual studio???

thanks,

John

I wish. No, only 1970's technology -- print statements -- oh, wait that was still the era of cards, make it 1980s technology.

No way to examine variables or objects either. Or breaks on variable change, etc.

John,


No there is not. There are a couple of options, use debugPrintln, where the output goes to the formula output window. Alternatively, you can output to a file. What I use is the Trace utility that I put together a while back. The most efficient version I have put together so far is in the shUtilities function library. It is used similarly to debugPrintln, but the performance penalty is minimal in comparison, and can be turned off. The documentation and code for that is the Library folder in my fileshare, a link to which is at the bottom of this post.

I hope this helps.
