I want to write a REXX tool which would extract the copybook names of a program and present a nice report.


Can anyone suggest me a method to extract copybook names if they are separated by more than one spaces?

e.g.

COPY MYCOPY1.

COPY MYCOPY2.

Please assume that in the second statement
COPY MYCOPY2.

COPY and MYCOPY2 are separated by more than one spaces.

I believe an ISPF edit macro, combined with REXX's PARSE instruction will do the job.

With REXX, that's easy...
Code:
/* load cobol program in memory (FCBLPGM allocated to member)*/
"EXECIO * DISKR FCBLPGM (FINIS STEM PgmSrc."

/* loop on program contents scanning for COPY */
Do P = 1 To PgmSrc.0
   Parse Upper Var PgmSrc.P 1 . 7 Comment 8 CblLine 73 .
   If Comment = '*' Then Iterate
   If Word(CblLine,1) <> 'COPY' Then Iterate
   CopyName = Strip(Word(CblLine,2),'.')
   Say "Found COPY. Name is "CopyName
End

Perhaps use ICEMAN/ICETOOL to:
..... extract the lines with substring " COPY "
..... process the results in workfile.
..... produce your "nice report" from the workfile ?

You simple need to reformat the report ( if You are not satisfied with the native ispf report )
