Code analysis helps you understand and optimize your COBOL applications.
Visual COBOL offers the following types of analysis:
Rules-based analysis
Visual COBOL provides a variety of analysis queries (rules) that you can execute on individual COBOL programs or on an entire project to gain statistics to help improve the productivity.
Restriction: Rule-based analysis is only available for
local and remote
native COBOL projects on Windows platforms only.
COBOL Source Information
COBOL Source Information (CSI) provides a quick and easy way of providing you with information about your program when you are working on it. You enter a query in
the
Quick Browse dialog box and CSI returns the results of the query in the
Search view.
Restriction: COBOL Source Information (CSI) is only supported for native COBOL.
