Yes, STAX submits a STAF service request for each <stafcmd> it processes. 
STAF provides a TRACE service that allows you to enable tracing for STAF 
service requests submitted so that you can see the STAF service request 
submitted.  The TRACE service also allows you to set the trace output 
destination.

See section "8.18 Trace Service" in the STAF User's Guide at 
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFUG.htm#HDRTRACESRV for more 
information.  You will want to enable the ServiceRequest tracepoint on the 
machine that you specified for the <location> sub-element for <stafcmd>. 
The ServiceRequest tracepoint causes a trace message to be generated for 
every incoming service request before it is processed by the service.

For example, assuming the stafcmd element's <location> sub-element 
specified machine 'client1.company.com', you could enable tracing for the 
ServiceRequest tracepoint on this machine as follows:

STAF client1.company.com TRACE ENABLE TRACEPOINT "ServiceRequest"

Assuming the stafcmd element's <service> sub-element specified service 
'FS' (though it could be any STAF service), you could enable tracing for 
only service 'FS' (and not all the other STAF services) on this machine as 
follows:

STAF client1.company.com TRACE DISABLE ALL SERVICES
STAF client1.company.com TRACE ENABLE SERVICE FS        (Instead of FS, 
specify the service in your <stafcmd> element that you want to trace)

And you can specify STAF tracing to go to file C:\temp\staf.trc (or 
whatever file you wanted) on machine client1.compnay.com as follows:

STAF client1.company.com TRACE SET DESTINATION TO FILE C:/temp/staf.trc

Now that tracing is set up on client1.company.com (or whatever the name of 
your Windows machine where the <stafcmd> is running), you can recreate the 
problem by running your STAX job and then check the STAF trace output in 
file C:\temp\staf.trc on machine client1.company.com.

Subject:        [staf-users] Trace <stafcmd> ?



Hi,

I'm getting a crash on a  win XP app called by a stax test.  It appears 
one of the parameters passed to it is somehow corrupted.  Is there any way 
to trace <stafcmd> so we can see exactly what is being passed?
