I'm working on a large (100s of files) legacy program, and my latest
task is to make it multithreaded. One issue is the global variables.
Is there any way to automatically get a list of them? I see some of
them (the nonstatics) in the map file, but even those aren't
identified as globals.

Not that I know of. You can save yourself a bit by running some cross-referencer to nyx) wrote:

on your source and get a list of *all* vars -- this way you at least won't need to
hunt for them manually.

Of course, statics (file-statics) are in reality global as well and still might
need protection. I'm sure you knew that, just wanted to mention for clarity here.

The nonstatics are available in ClassView (the leftmost tab of the
Alt0 Workspace). At the bottom of the list of classes is a Globals
folder, and at the bottom of the list of global functions are the
nonstatic global variables.
