Find impacted exe's for the given function name

Hi All,

I am looking for some smart way to find all the exe's names for the given local function.
We are having thousands of C and Cobol files, and out of this we are creating 100's of exes. Now if I change any one of the function(C or Cobol), I want to know which exe's are going to be impacted.

One fuction written in some file can be called from lot other places, and create seperate exes.

Thanks,Amar

Set up a CVS server, and check your code into it. That's what it's for.

The dependencies should be evident by inspecting the Makefile(s). It may be possible to automate the analysis either by direct inspection of the Makefiles, or by running make with switches to only report what would be built, without actually performing the build.
