In this installment of discussions regarding the diagnostic utilities, we are going to talk about how to find programming conflicts or errors using the Call and Dependency Structure tools. We will begin by reminding you how to access the tools followed by a refresher on what the results mean. We then demonstrate the consistency check option within the tools. This option will show us a graphic that lists any conflicts that may exist in the program. There are a couple of different ways to use this option so jump right into this lesson and we’ll see if we can find some conflicts.
As you may recall, we left off in the last lesson refreshing your memory on how to call the tools and selecting the conflicts option. We then ran a conflicts check on our project only to find that we had a few errors that we needed to address. We explained a little about the coloring of the confl...
Another great tool in the diagnostic utilities is the assignment list. In this lesson, we are going to discuss this tool, when and why you would want to use it, and how to deploy the tool. This tool will help you determine exactly what addresses have been used within your program as well as the t...
In this continued discussion of the assignment list, we are going to demonstrate how to find where the addresses are used within the program. We will be utilizing the cross-reference tool that we have previously used in conjunction with the assignment list to locate the different blocks in which ...
