Is there a simple way to determine what functions and procedures are not 
used in a project.  IOW, if a function or procedure is not actually 
called anyplace in the  project I would like that to be  reported 
similar to declared but not used variables.

Essentially, I want to eliminate all superfluous procedures and 
functions.  I can manually go thru and search for calls to subroutines, 
but it's time consuming and tedious work.  Does something exist that 
does this or do I need to create my own Tool ?

Thanks, Joe

you meant your procedures.... ?

you can to create a program in 2 parts
1 - you must read your prgs and read the sentences "Procedure" and 
"Function" then you add the words tha folow this sentences like a dictionary
2 - search in all prgs this words and count each find
all words with value 0 in its counter..........

Hi Jorge,

Basically, what you suggested would work except that the prg that 
contains a procedure or function might have more than 1 occurrence of 
the function/procedure name.  Using "count" as a test just isn't reliable.

The concept is pretty basic but could be adapted.

	1.  Eliminate any instances where it in a comment.
	2.  Eliminate any instances where the name is after "function" or 
"procedure".
	3.  Differentiate between public, private, and static functions/procedures.
	4.  Use the project file to identify what prg's to search.

With a large app containing an exe and several dll's, some of which 
reference other dll's, it can get pretty complicated.  What I was hoping 
was that either the preprocessor or VX might have this already built-in.

Hello Joe
Do you need that it develops the idea and says to you precisely the calls of 
all your files defined in your project?

I see that already you have considered to be some initial concetos who in 
view of the case can become more refined more

Good Luck

did you try CLICK! ?
Olaf870 did some enhancement for Xbase++

I looked at it but it really isn't what I want.  Just too manual an 
approach.  I'm interested in something much more comprehensive and 
automatic.
