A language- and
platform-independent inventory, analysis, and remediation support
tool.
Developed originally for Fidelity Investments' use in its own
Year 2000 conversion projects, TRACER 2000 allows you to analyze
source code in any language, from any platform. It uses several
built-in features (user customizable pattern and filter scanning;
variable propagation through drill-down; status tracking by
date-related entity and source file; and reporting), while letting
you break large applications into more manageable segments. An
underlying relational database supports flexible reporting as well
as online analysis and remediation tracking.
TRACER 2000 employs scanning technology enhanced with user
controlled variable propagation (drill-down). A built-in source code
viewer supplements the scanning results. Scan patterns and filters
are user definable and selectable. The product runs on Windows 95 or
NT 4.0, requiring a minimum of 15Mb of disk space. 32M of RAM is
recommended. TRACER 2000 can scan any language with source in a text
format. (Utilities are provided to extract source text from Excel,
MS Access, Sybase, and PowerBuilder.)
