Issue/Introduction

We have several CA MetaCOBOL+ application programs accessing several different CA Datacom tables.

Now we need to modify a table. How do we determine which programs access this table?

 

Environment

Release:
Component: IPC

Resolution

To find out what application programs access a CA Datacom table, run the CA Datacom batch utility DDUTILTY to produce an indented report against the CA Datacom Datadictionary, listing the program names.

The DDUTILTY control statements show the path to follow is from Table to Element to Dataview to Program:

  -USR user,password 
  -DEF PATH, pathname
  -DEF TRACE,TABLE.KEY,$INTERNAL 
  -DEF TRACE,TABLE.ELEMENT,$INTERNAL 
  -DEF TRACE ELEMENT.DATAVIEW,$INTERNAL 
  -DEF TRACE DATAVIEW.PROGRAM,PGM-DVW-USE 
  -DEF TRACE PROGRAM.PROGRAM,PGM-PGM-CALL 
  -END 
  -RPT START,TABLE, tablename ( stat ), pathname 
  -RPT INDENT 
  -END 

In the resulting report output, look for the Entity Type of "PGM".

In the following report for Table PAYROLL in PROD status, there are 3 programs (DLPROB1, DLPROB2, and TESTLE):
