Program Processor

Description

The Program Processor processes a single COBOL source program and produces a data usage file and reports. This component is a full COBOL parser; it includes functional phases for reading, scanning, parsing, analyzing, sorting, and reporting on a COBOL source program. The Program Processor produces the following reports:

• The Management Summary Report
• The Diagnostic Report
• The File and Records Layout Report
• The DATA DIVISION Cross-Reference Report

Data usage file

The data usage file produced is the input required for the Cross Reference Processor and the DDDL Generator. The Program Processor must be executed once for each program in the system of programs being processed.
