The Database Trace tool records the internal commands that DataWindow Designer executes while accessing a database. You can trace a database connection in the plug-in.
DataWindow Designer writes the output of Database Trace to a log file named DBTRACE.LOG (by default) or to a nondefault log file that you specify. When you enable database tracing for the first time, DataWindow Designer creates the log file on your computer. Tracing continues until you disconnect from the database.
Using the Database Trace tool with one connection You can use the Database Trace tool for only one DBMS at a time and for one database connection at a time.
For example, if your application connects to both an ODBC data source and an Adaptive Server Enterprise database, you can trace either the ODBC connection or the Adaptive Server Enterprise connection, but not both connections at the same time.
