I have a tool I wrote here that does this for your entire source repo. It creates a UD file and processes each source file, mapping out which subroutines the code calls and saves it as a record in the UD file.
I then have several dictionary items, such as SHALLOW, DEEP, ISPROGRAM and TREE, which you can used to find programs/subroutines, which directly/indirectly call something, or with TREE, display the entire call tree 'graphically'. It would be fairly trivial to change it to handle INCLUDEs, etc. If anyone is interested, I could ask if I can release it.

Sent: Wednesday, 27 May 2009 6:50 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: RE: [U2] UV BASIC Flowing Charting Tools I wrote something like this a while ago. It has a driver program that prompts for what you want (includes, calls, etc) and what program to start on, then calls the main external subroutine. This external subroutine recursively calls itself for each call and include. The trick to this is to remember which programs you have already checked. Otherwise, you could find yourself in a nasty endless loop because you keep testing the same subroutines over and over.

The trick is to create a flowchart from BASIC which shows Calls and Includes (one kind of report), or files and fields used (another kind of report). You can take it further and trace Exceutes, procs, paragraphs, etc. All of those report types are data-centric and it's a real challenge to create a generic utility that can derive that sort of metadata from any given MV application. Once you have the data you can render it with any tools you wish. Doing the charting is the easy part. :) I believe Brian Leach has something for doing MV-oriented flow charting as described above.
