Re: module/pgm analysis (lines of code)

Wait a minute, you missed a few lines that are required by the first example:

c k1list klist
c kfld field1
c kfld field2
c kfld field3
c kfld kfld4
c kfld field6
c eval kfld4 = %subst(field4 : 1 : %len(%trim(field5)))

If a larger number of lines makes you more productive, then /free is the way to go:

Compare this:

c k1list Chain File

versus

Chain (field1:
field2:
field3:
%subst(field4:
1:
%len(%trim(field5))):
field6) File;

Ka-ching!

Not really kidding, though.

I've seen projects where the time estimate was 50 man-days.

So the manager reasoned that, if he put 25 people on it, it would be ready the day after tomorrow.

Kind of like the same reasoning, it seems.

Re: module/pgm analysis (lines of code)






The Retrieve Program Information returns source information only for OPM programs, I believe. It only gives module counts for ILE programs. To get source for ILE programs, one needs to use the List ILE Program Information. There is a format for listing modules and their source information. Similarly, there is also a List Service Program Information.

Of course, one first needs to do a DSPOBJD to an outfile, perhaps, to get the list of programs and service programs and whether they are OPM or ILE. The object attribute field will tell you that. Could also use the List Objects API. There you want the extended object attribute field of format OBJL0200 or higher.

Then there is the matter of embedded SQL - but at least one should be able to get to the original source - unless you use a scheme where the source is not the same name as the object - don't laugh - saw that once - and also saw the contractor who did it, escorted out the door summarily.
