debugLocalDateFormat

The debugLocalDateFormat build descriptor option applies to text host variables associated with date columns in the debugger. The option specifies the date format pattern for the date in the text host variable. Use this option when you are testing programs intended to run in COBOL environments where the JDBC driver cannot return the default date format specified for the host DB2® database manager.

The value of the option is a date format, such as "yyyyMMdd". For more information, see Date/time masks and format specifiers.

If you do not specify a value, EGL uses the date format returned by the JDBC driver.
