Ask the prez.....he DID say he was writing 4GL back in 1983 didn't he?
I have no doubt that he wrote any of the tools available today too!

Doc4GL (see manual from
http://aubit4gl.sourceforge.net/aubit4gldoc/index.html) is a tool that
parses 4GL code and collects DoxyGen, API, module and meta data
information. IT does not go to the level of if-then-else currently, but
hey, it is OpenSource, so it would not be too hard to do.

I strongly encourage anyone with more then few thousend lines of 4GL to
take a good look at it - it is by far most advanced documentation tool
available for x4GL.

And yes, it was originally written by Sergio.

FWIW - If anyone is interested in detecting particular code constructs within
their 4GL, the Aubit4GL parser can be used with a little bit of extra C -
I've done this privately for customers before on a commercial basis..
