The QUIT command is simlar to the EXIT command, except that QUIT does not cause your program to execute and, therefore, does not execute any application-declared exit handlers in your program. Ending a Debugging Session: To end a debugging session, enter the QUIT command at the debugger prompt without specifying any parameters. This causes orderly termination of the session: the debugger exit handler is executed (closing log files, restoring the screen and keypad states, and so on), and control is returned to DCL level. You cannot then continue to debug your program by entering the DCL command DEBUG or CONTINUE (you must restart the debugger). Using the QUIT Command in Command Procedures and DO Clauses: When the debugger executes a QUIT command (without any parameters) in a command procedure, control returns to the command stream that invoked the command procedure. A command stream can be the terminal, an outer (containing) command procedure, or a DO clause in a command or screen display definition. For example, if the command procedure was invoked from within a DO clause, control returns to that DO clause, where the debugger executes the next command (if any remain in the command sequence). When the debugger executes a QUIT command (without any parameters) in a DO clause, it ignores any remaining commands in that clause and displays its prompt. Terminating Specified Processes: If you are debugging a multiprocess program, you can use the QUIT command to terminate specified processes without ending the debugging session. The same techniques and behavior apply, whether you enter the QUIT command at the prompt or use it within a command procedure or DO clause. To terminate one or more processes, enter the QUIT command, specifying these processes as parameters. This causes orderly termination of the images in these processes without executing any application-declared exit handlers associated with these images. Subsequently, the specified processes are no longer identified in a SHOW PROCESS/ALL display. In contrast to the EXIT command, the QUIT command does not cause any process to start execution.
