I have been using a tool that shows symbol usage across several modules for many years. Sample output (partial) -
| Code: |
ADATA_RECSYM ADATAXIT CPYADATA GBLXREF
ADATA_RECTYPE ADATAXIT CPYADATA GBLXREF
ADATA_RECXREF ADATAXIT CPYADATA GBLXREF
ADATA_VERSION ADATAXIT
ADSYM_NAME GBLXREF
ASMADATA ADATAXIT CPYADATA GBLXREF
AXP_HSIArg1 ADATAXIT
AXPAIL ADATAXIT
AXPBUFP ADATAXIT
AXPCEND ADATAXIT
AXPRETC *ADATAXIT
AXPRIL ADATAXIT
AXPRIP ADATAXIT
AXPRPRO ADATAXIT
AXPRTYP ADATAXIT
AXPSIL ADATAXIT
AXPTAD ADATAXIT
AXPTYPE ADATAXIT
AXPXITP ADATAXIT
DCBACBM MINIFMT
DCBBUFCB GBLXREF
DCBDCBE CPYADATA GBLXREF MINIFMT
DCBDDNAM GBLXREF
DCBLRECL *CPYADATA GBLXREF
DECAREA *GBLXREF
DECB *GBLXREF
IHADCB *CPYADATA GBLXREF MINIFMT |
Modules marked with * alter the symbol. The tool originally worked by analyzing an ASM XF or Assembler H listing. When the ADATA option for HLASM became available the tool was rewritten to process ADATA data.
Since I now own the tool - version 3 of the tool is a complete rewrite and was not developed with any sort of corporate sponsorship - I can contribute it to CBT.
My question for the forum, is anyone interested in using the tool? |

| I only know HLASM ADATA; I can't answer the question. |

| Steve, I was thinking of the IBM TOOL Debug side files, don't know where my head was on this one. |

| I'm aware other products produce ADATA like data, but I don't know anything else. Yes - I do understand what you were thinking. |

| I was able to locate the description of ADATA data for Enterprise Cobol 4.1. While record types 42 and 44 (the record types used by my GBLXREF) appear to define the same data (symbol name and symbol reference) the record data appears to be hopelessly dissimilar than the same data from HLASM. I would expect my GBLXREF to crash hard if it were presented with Enterprise Cobol ADATA data. |
