  • RDi Visualise Application Diagram

    Just discovered this cool feature

    But it only shows calls to other programs, local procedures, and subroutines - not to bound module procedures? Can it simply not do this, or am I missing something?

    You have to select all the source that you want to be diagrammed.

    Here's a two-part article by Susan Gantner on using the application diagram.

      I still can't get it to work. My situation:

      I have service program A. It contains modules A1 and A2.
      A1 has a main procedure, it calls procedures exported from A2

      I would like a visualise diagram that shows all the procedure calls within A1, including any calls to bound procedures exported from A2

      If I do a visualise diagram for the source for A1, I see its local procedure/subroutines and external program calls. I don't see calls to bound procedures.
      I tried selecting the sources for both A1 and A2 at once in remote systems view, and right-clicking to visualise. But that just showed both sources as separate items in the same diagram, with no procedure calls to link them.

      I tried doing a visualise on the A *SRVPGM object. That just showed me a list of modules and which programs are called by any of them (without showing which call them)

      The articles you linked to say you can create a diagram that combines both program and procedure calls, but doesn't say how and I failed to work it out.

      Am I missing something?

        Sorry, I can't guess what you're doing wrong. I created two source members, DIAG1 and DIAG2. Member DIAG1 has a call to an internal procedure p1, and a call to procedure p2 exported from DIAG2. When I select the source for both DIAG1 and DIAG2, the application diagram shows both the call to p1 and the call to p2.
