Re: VB utilities??

Don,

From your message I understand that you know how the stacks work. However
what do you do with all the objects. Those are not in the stack and have a
lot of hidden codes.

By the way, the program you are talking about are in my idea already there.

Have a look at google for "profiler Net"

I hope this gives an idea

Hi Cor,

Yes, I understand how the "actual" call stack works. What I'm talking
about is an add-in that builds a hierarchical list of procedure calls.
It's for a number of purposes, 1. to find dead procedures that are
never called. 2. to illustrate how the application is designed. It's a
bit like the idea of a flowchart. I know that a flowchart can not
anticipate how an event driven app will actually run though.

The Aivosto add-in that I mentioned had this function (among many
others). I found it quite helpful in understanding how someone else's
software works.

Thank you for your help,

Don

Don,

I think it does not make sense. Partially your code is done from the
stack,
however a much more major part is done from the objects, which are
instanced
and released all the times. Some thousands time in a nanosecond.

Just my two worthless Dutch cents.

The compamy that I was doing software development went bust in early
2001 and I've only occasionally been messin' arround with programming
since.

On one of my attempts to get into VB.Net I think I saw a free add-in
that did a "sort-of" stack trace of all your code. It went threw all
the code modules and built a heirarchy of what procedure called what
others. It also found dead procs. It was like that Aivosto add-in for
VB5 & 6.

Am I making sense? Does anyone have a clue abouy waht I'm talking
about?

Any help will be appreciated.

Don
