COBOL Analyzer

Use this utility to analyze COBOL source code. A process flowchart is created illustrating the execution path of the program. Procedural COPYBOOKs are also taken into account. This means any copybooks found after the 'PROCEDURE DIVISION' are evaluated as well (A CALL may be found in a procedural copybook).

Click on the Sea Horse to download the COBOL Analyzer program. Below you will find sample output and a description of the user prompts.

Phase 1 - Load Procedure Array

The first step will analyze the COBOL source code. All performed procedures and called modules are loaded into an array. The second phase will list the procedures (and called modules) in execution order.

Phase 2 - Display Process Flowchart

User Prompts

Enter COBOL Program Path/Filename:

Enter the COBOL program you wish to analyze.

NOTE: Change TDCOBDIR directive to match the COBOL source path.

(Used to find CALLed modules and procedural COPYBOOKS)

NOTE:

This utility is an early version of my full-blown COBOL Analyzer. This version supports 'single' modules only. This means each CALLed module will not be included in the Process Flowchart (the CALL will be listed but not drilled-down further). The report is much too cumbersome when Multi-modules are used.
