| You would have to scan all your source programs for ' CALL ' then determine whether or not it's a static or dynamic call. |

You're asking the impossible. For example, a COBOL program could read a file, take an 8-byte character variable from the file, and issue a CALL to the subprogram that the 8-byte character variable names. So unless you execute the program enough times to exercise every logic path, you might not be able to determine all the dynamically called programs. And even then, someone could add another record to the file, pointing to a different program, and now there's a new dynamically called subprogram to add to your cross reference. |
