Problem:

Releases: Net Express and Mainframe Express:

Want to know which files are involved to store breakpoints / watchlists during an IDE session.

Resolution:

The file which stores the breakpoints is the projectname.~ds file on Net Express and projectname.dbs on Mainframe Express.

The ~ds/dbs file is only written when the project is closed. So if for example Net Express  just had the unfortunate occurrence to crash, then the breakpoints do not get saved and they are lost.

Alll the watchlist information is stored in the ~ds/.dbs file as well.

Net Express:The .idy file and .app file do not store breakpoint information.

Mainframe Express: The .idy file and .mvp file do not store breakpoint information.
