Hi All -

Rational offers a static analysis tool that uses ASIS called Ada Analyzer.  I know it can find shared variables, but I'm not sure about reentrant subprograms.  Perhaps you could recompile with pragma Restrictions(No_Reentrancy); and see where the program fails.  Ada Analyzer is an excellent tool for finding "needle in the haystack" problems, and can also help locate problem-prone code.  About the only downside is that the tool runs only under Rational Apex.  If you are using Apex, I strongly recommend you investigate this tool.

Cheers,

        - John Harbaugh
