Re: What programs use a particular procedure

You can't create an SQL service to retrieve data that doesn't readily exist Daniel. You'd need the underlying APIs first.

As has been pointed out earlier, the only thing recorded in the PGM is the slot number(s) to use.

So work would be needed to extract the name/slot associations from the SRVPGMs and then marry those with the slots used by individual PGMs.

Even then you would still not know about any procedures dynamically linked.

You could just use FNDSTRPDM on your source file(s) to find all places that reference the procedure name.

This might help in cases, where

a) you only have a few source code libraries

b) you don't have the source code in IFS (-> grep)

c) you don't use polymorphic procedures using OVERLOAD - at least not, if you want to know which overloaded procedure effectively gets called

I think it's a bummer, that IBM has no SQL service for that.
