It is arguable that this (the IBM win, and related) is counter productive. (But try to convince IBM exec/legal of it.) Since the exit of other vendors from the mainframe hardware market, industry interest in that architecture has waned. Meanwhile, other processor architectures, with less original

If you have z/OS Debugger, a fairly simple script can get the debugger to write to the log file a trace of programs that have been called and labels (eg. COBOL paragraph names) of statements executed. Here's an example of JCL to run a batch job and have z/OS Debugger write a trace of programs call

With COBOL 6.4 at the base level, you can use ddname IGZPROUT at the run step of your JCL to generate a report of all dynamically called programs that are compiled with Enterprise COBOL 5 or later releases. With the COBOL runtime PTF for APAR PH61133 installed, the report contains COBOL 5 or later

You should be able to do this with Systems/C in LE mode. We have options for that, although I haven't tried it in an LE environment. Basically - you can tell the compiler to generate a macro invocation at the start and end of the function, which you could write to do whatever-you-want. Of cou
