Separate Analysis


You may perform analysis on separate SDL units. The units that can be handled (other than system) are:

Note:

When performing separate analysis on a package, referred packages must be supplied as well.

If a unit is given without context, only syntactic checking can be performed. But, if the unit's placement in the system (that is, its context) is also given, both the syntactic checking and most of the semantic checking can be performed. The context of a unit is its enclosing scope units including the definitions that are not referenced, i.e. remote diagrams are excluded.

GR Input

In the Analyzer, the context is specified in the Organizer tree structure if the input is a GR diagram. The diagrams surrounding the diagram that is to be separately analyzed and the diagrams inside that diagram are translated to PR and analyzed. No errors will occur due to missing remote diagrams, except missing remote diagrams inside the separately analyzed diagram. See Performing Syntax Check.

PR Input

If the input is a PR file, there is no way to specify what part of the system to Analyze. Only syntax analysis is available on incomplete systems in PR form. See Converting SDL/PR to SDL/GR.
