David,
Application Diagram stores application structure information in file with
extension.appmdl. The visualization information (such as layout, the
locations of each node etc ) is stored in file with
extension.appmdl_diagram.
You can send both files to other people for sharing. You can also just
share model file -- other folks will get the default visualization.
To see external procedure call, make sure your copybook source member can
be found from library list of your RSE connection, you also need to include
copybook in selection when opening the diagram.

[mailto:wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] De la part de Vern Hamberg
I've been using the Application Diagram and have found it
helpful for jumping into code for a certain point in the code
stream. Trouble is, when I add lines of code, that the line
numbers are incorrect - similar to what happens with the
Outline. There's a Refresh option for the Outline - I've not
seen one for an application diagram. I've not tried reshaping
things in the diagram, just dragging things around to make it
better for my eyes.
So has anyone seen this, and have you found a way to refresh
it? So far all I can do is create a new one, go through
re-arranging, then save it.
Not a good use of time, eh?
No, but your post is a great help to me, Vern, who did not even realise you
could jump into source members! I'm sure I'll be using it a lot more from
now on. In fact this could be a revolution for us. I just used it on a new
program I just wrote. I had a lovely symetrical diagram. Just wait a few
months and I bet it won't be as symetrical! But I realised, If we used
better procedure naming, we'd be able to see clearly what the application
does without reading through pages and pages of code and comments. By that,
I mean, I can see AcqPrdClt that calls AcqPrdXxx. Imagine if it said
AcquireClientProducts calls ProductIsTypeXxxxxxxxxx? I'd be able to read my
program like a book from the application diagram.
Now, I just saved it to an i project, and I've got two files :
MyAppDiagram.appmdl and MyAppDiagram.appmdl_diagram.
Why are there two? Can I send the diagram to someone?
Also, I see that I have 2 internal procedures that do dynamic calls to
other programs and those programs are indicated. But when a procedure calls
an external procedure, that external procedure is not indicated. Although I
see its module in the list of modules bound to my program.
