Overview of the DBD mapping tool

• Segment hierarchy
• Internal logical relationships
• Secondary properties

When you disassemble object code for a DBD, the DBD mapping tool generates a DBD map (Figure 1). Disassembling object code for a DBD is a prerequisite for viewing a DBD map.

The DBD Map tab has the following panes:

• The top left pane shows a panning control (a rectangular outline) which you can position to the part of the map that you want to view. For example, to view the top left part of the DBD map, click the top left corner of the panning control.
• The bottom left pane shows a drop-down menu where you can select segments or logical relationships to view.
• The right pane shows the DBD map.

Using the map viewing option buttons under the DBD map (Zoom In, Zoom Out, Print, Export to JPEG), you can zoom in and zoom out, focus on an area of the DBD map, and view internal logical relationships. You can also print and export a DBD map.
