Hello,
I would like to use VisualStudio or (better Visual Studio Code) to Debug a User Subroutine (Umat).
I know it would be easier using write(6,*) or write(7,*) commands, but lets assume i would like to use the debugger.
I know there is a build in Debugger for Abaqus for Subroutine and i think i am close.
So i created a file directory there i have a job.inp and user.for (umat-subroutine), the env-file was changed accordingly.
Now i am using:
abaqus debug job=job user=umat.for -standardIt is opening VisualStudio. I can see the standard.exe in the right corner and my job is paused.
So far so good. Now i am opening the umat.for file and create a breakpoint. The Debugger just skips this Breakpoint and runs thow, when i click run.
Any idea how to proceed? I am glad for any kind of help. Thanks
I found some ressources about this topic, unfortenetly its about older Abaqus versions or other Systems, but i would like to create it on my windows.
Here my ressources that i looked at:
- https://github.com/nasa/CompDam_DGD?tab=readme-ov-file#advanced-debugging
This LinkedIn artikel describes, that i have to add maybe something like a windows command that is doing the same like the linux command auto-safe-load-path? -->

*Edit:
I have a wrapper, that opens Visual Studio Code and Standard.exe is available, job is paused. So now i am looking for a fix for this Breakpoints.
The abaqus debug help= command shows:
Error: must use "-" syntax. For example:
USAGE:
abq debug <-executable> [] -job c1 ...
abq debug cae [ -exe ker|gui ] ...
abq debug [ -exe <> [ -core <> ]]
OPTIONS:
-db debugger -- Debugger to launch
-exe executable -- Executable to debug
-stop function -- Function to stop at
-wait -- Wait for license (if unavailable)
-dbscript -- Load custom debugger script at startup
-dbargs "..." -- Pass arguments to the debugger
EXAMPLES -- SOLVERS
abq debug -pre dbx -job c1 ...
abq debug -standard cvd -job c1 ...
abq debug -standard gdb -job c1 -stop step_
abq debug -exe solver -job c1 ...
abq debug -exe standard -db msdev -job c1
abq debug -exe standard -db msdev10 -job c1
abq debug -explicit -job x1
abq debug -explicit -job x1 -double
abq debug -explicit -job x1 -recover
EXAMPLES -- CAE
abq debug cae -exe ker ...
abq debug cae -exe gui ...
EXAMPLES -- TEST PROGRAMS
abq debug test cowT_String
Default debugger on this platform is: devenv
Recognized executables:
