LegacyAid Overview

LegacyAid provides a comprehensive solution for "black box" systems--the systems in every organization that nobody seems to fully understand.

Powerful analysis and redocumentation tools take much of the effort out of understanding legacy systems. LegacyAid lets you quickly assess the impact of changes to the system, create diagrams of program logic flow, and generate metrics data such as Kiviat diagrams and complexity reports.

You can automatically generate up-to-date project documentation-eliminate the struggle of documenting legacy systems by generating more than 30 types of Format, List, Cross Reference, Long Format Information and System Information documents.

LegacyAid's powerful COBOL text editor has sophisticated search capabilities, bookmarks, macros, and reserved words highlighting.

Reengineering tools let you revitalize legacy code by finding unused data, exploring referenced copy files, tracing program execution, and more. In addition, LegacyAid's integrated Conversion/Expansion Wizard functions help you quickly identify and fix data field problems.

LegacyAid makes working with existing source code easy--from individual programs to the largest enterprise systems. LegacyAid effortlessly handles systems consisting of thousands of programs and millions of lines of code. Best of all, LegacyAid is fully "networkable" so many developers can simultaneously work on a single project.

For maximum flexibility, LegacyAid can analyze many file types, including ACUCOBOL, ANSI COBOL, IBM COBOL II, Micro Focus COBOL, RM/COBOL, and Tandem COBOL. LegacyAid also supports systems incorporating IBM JCL, CICS/MVS, BMS, DB2 DDL, and Tandem SQL Obey files.
