Distinguishing between Homonyms in the Reports

Sometimes there can be several items with the same name in the repository. To distinguish between them in the reports, you can set COBOL Analyzer to display their location.

To do this, perform the following steps:
  1. Click Options > Workspace Options.

    This opens the Options - Workspace dialog box.

  2. Click the Homonyms tab.
  3. Check Show Source Path In Reports.
    Note: This option is unchecked by default.

When Show Source Path In Reports is checked, the Complexity and CRUD Report under Reports and the Unresolved Report, Cross Reference Report in the Reference Reports dialog box, will contain a column displaying the path with the file name to distinguish between objects with the same name. In the Complexity report, the column is called Source Path.
