Excellent, just excellent. It did find correctly all globals in a routine (no indirection). I populated in = ##class(%Stream.TmpCharacter).%New() with this code:
S NumLines=^ROUTINE(routineName,0,0)   ; Omit extension
F n=0:1:NumLines {
    S line=$T(@routineName+n^@routineName)
    D in.Write(line),in.Write($c(13,10))
}
D in.Rewind()

I also added this after your Write:
                Set line=$G(^ROUTINE(rtnName,0,lineNum+1))
                Write $C(9),$E(line,token.p+1,token.p+token.c),!
I did not try finding globals in classes, but I assume this would be very similar. Is there any online documentation that shows that token value for globals is 18? Would be curious about other token values.

Thanks, Brett. I did try using SyntaxColor but not with JSON and did not like the HTML results. I'll give your code a try.

Thanks, Yaron. I'll skip looking for indirections for now.

Thanks, Julius

$STACK, of course. It looks like current line is represented by $st(1,"MCODE"). Did not know about $zname. Thanks!

I made a mistake, now corrected: it's Cache, not Ensemble. It does have this function too. I'll post results here.

That's exactly what I was looking for!

I am using the %File class.

This approach indeed works on a small sample file. Not sure what matters here but I have a 50 MB file created with ^%RO and while FindAt does return position, not sure if a correct one, MoveTo fails to move to it. RO files seem not to have any control characters that might have disrupted FindAt somehow.

Yes, ReadLine works, thanks,

Less verbose and more elegant

Enrico, I meant how to programmatically reproduce information on the System > Configuration > Namespaces page in Management Portal. In other words, how to extract default databases listed under Routines on this page.

Thanks, Sarah. Changing the third argument to an empty one does not make a difference. Yes, the Used/Allocated difference is clear.

Thanks, Robert. A couple of additional questions.

• Would you say the Used Size from GetGlobalSize (Size argument from code above; 725 MB) is more correct or the %GSIZE result is more correct (760 MB)?
• What's your take on GetGlobalSizeBySubscript when called for all first level subscripts yielding a magnitude lesser number in total, 8.56 MB? Could it be it returns only contents of purely ^GLOBAL(sub1) and not returning contents of ^GLOBAL(sub1,sub2)? BTW, I saw in the debugger that  GetGlobalSizeBySubscript calls %GSIZE internally.

I was so focused on subscripts that I forgot about indirection :-) . Thanks!

Good to know!

Very interesting, thanks!

It is based on a specific separator as opposed to all regular text separators at the same time, but it is an interesting approach to keep in mind. I was thinking about $LOCATE as well.

That would be this Date Modified, AFAIK

I searched Journals for ^ROUTINE nodes and the filter displayed nothing. Both RI and RCOPY functions bypass any kind of source control, so GIT or OnAfterSave hooks cannot help.

Thanks a lot, Alex!
