Configuration of the file types to be examined in the program callgraph

Currently, when the "Program callgraph" is executed on a program, all calls are examined, so that the files, programs and SQL Table are examined and displayed in the diagrammm.

The analysis of all data types takes a lot of time and the performance of the IDE suffers a lot.

 

It would be helpful if there was a possibility to select all or only certain file types via the preferences and in the dialog for the program call graph. With this setting the user can decide what should be displayed in the program call graph.

 

Especially for the impact analysis of programs with many program dependencies and the additional setting of depth and direction this can be an enormous performance gain.
