- [Instructor] Re-engineering source code requires a good understanding of how it's structured and written. And this is helped by having a source code analysis tool, which can do much of the basic code scanning. SciTools have a source code analysis tool with visual capability, which can do this for COBOL. It's called Understand. Understand is a static analysis tool designed to help programmers gain an understanding of the structure and function of source code, provide source code metrics and support standards testing. It works with large-scale legacy and newly created application source code and is also a maintenance-oriented interactive development environment. Understand can run at the command line or through a graphical interface, providing easy access to information about the code and data items, and contextual information relating to their use. It supports Ascii85, Micro Focus, ACUCOBOL and IBM COBOL variants.…
