This function is used to obtain statistical information on which Natural objects were invoked during the execution of an application, and information on how often an object was invoked. Call statistics are deleted after resetting the debug environment.
To invoke the call statistics maintenance function
In the Debug Main Menu enter function code
C.
Oder:
Enter the following direct command:
CS
The Call Statistics Maintenance menu is displayed.
The functions provided in the Call Statistics Maintenance menu are explained in the following section whereas all print functions are described in Print Objects.
See the section Switch Test Mode On and Off.
When executing a Natural object with call
statistics set to ON, all calls made to a specific
object are counted and the resulting statistics can afterwards be displayed or
printed.
To set call statistics to ON or OFF
In the Call Statistics Maintenance menu, enter
function code C to activate or deactivate call statistics.
Oder:
Enter one of the following direct commands:
SET CALL ON
or
SET CALL OFF
Anmerkung:
If the function is
switched off and no call statistics have been created or call statistics have
been deleted by resetting the debug environment, the information stored for
statement execution statistics (see Statement Execution Statistics
Maintenance) is used for display. This allows you to detect the
non-invoked Natural objects during the execution of an application.
This function provides an overview of the call frequency of all objects contained in a library.
To display the call frequency of all objects in a library
In the Call Statistics Maintenance menu, enter
function code 1 and a library name.
Oder:
Enter the following direct command:
DISPLAY OBJECT library
See also the syntax of DISPLAY in
Command Summary and Syntax.
If you do not specify a library name, the library where you are currently logged on is assumed by default.
A Display Call Statistics screen similar to the example screen shown in Display Called Objects appears.
The Display Call Statistics screen lists all
objects in the specified library and indicates their call frequency in the
Calls column on the right-hand side. For each call
statement, such as FETCH or CALLNAT, an entry with
the name of the object and a counter variable is written into the debug buffer.
The counter is then increased for each call of the corresponding object.
The screen invoked by this function corresponds to the Display Call Statistics screen, but only the objects that have been invoked are displayed.
To display called objects of a library
In the Call Statistics
Maintenance menu, enter function code 2 and a library
name.
Oder:
Enter the following direct command:
DISPLAY CALL library
See also the syntax of DISPLAY in
Command Summary and Syntax.

If you do not specify a library name, the library where you are currently logged on is assumed by default.
The screen invoked by this function corresponds to the Display Call Statistics screen, but only the objects that have not been invoked are displayed.
To display non-called objects
In the Call Statistics Maintenance menu, enter
function code 3 and a library name.
Oder:
Enter the following direct command:
DISPLAY NOCALL library
See also the syntax of DISPLAY in
Command Summary and Syntax.
If you do not specify a library name, the library where you are currently logged on is assumed by default.
For an example screen, see Display Called Objects above.
With the print functions, you can directly route a generated list of
call statistics to a printer or download the list to a PC. You specify a
printer as the output device on the User Profile screen of
the debugger. Use the debugger command PROFILE (see the
section Navigation and Information Commands) to invoke this
screen.
If you do not specify a library name, the library where you are currently logged on is assumed by default.
As indicated under Print Options below, to invoke one of the print functions, you can either enter a function code in the Call Statistics Maintenance menu, or enter a direct command.
| Print Function | Function Code | Direct Command |
|---|---|---|
| All Objects | PRINT OBJECT
library
|
|
| Called Objects | PRINT CALL
library
|
|
| Non-Called Objects | PRINT NOCALL
library
|

Example of Generating and Printing Statistics in Batch in the section Batch Processing
If Entire Connection and Natural Connection are installed at your site, you can download a statistics list to a PC as described in the following instructions.
To download a list to a PC
At session start, specify the profile parameter
PRINT as follows:
PRINT=((1),AM=PC)
After session start, activate the PC connection using the following terminal command:
%+
Invoke and activate the debugger.
Invoke the User Profile screen by entering the
debugger command PROFILE (see
Navigation and Information Commands).
On the User Profile screen, in the
Output device field, replace the current entry by
PCPRNT01 and choose PF3 (Exit) to save the
settings.
Activate the function and execute the application for which you want the debugger to collect statistics data.
From the statistics screen, choose a print function.
In the Entire Connection window that appears, you can specify the output file and the PC directory.
