FAQs: Frequently asked questions
- Why is the code review application generating so
many different types of data files? How can I cause it to generate
only certain types?
The code review application always generates
all the types of data files that are registered with Eclipse and that
apply to the programming language or languages in which the specified
source code files are written.
- Why does the output information display a strange
URL such as [url]http://server:9090/rsar/reports/20121004_162226/[/url] ?
See Information written to standard output.
Troubleshooting
- When I run the code review application, no output
information is written to standard output. How can I get the application
to produce this information?
Follow these steps:
- If you are using Windows:
- Verify that you are using the parameter -verbose.
- Verify also that you are redirecting standard output to an output
file on the command line. See the descriptions of the -verbose parameter
and the output file.
- If you are using Linux,
or if you are using Windows but
you already verified the -verbose parameter,
all or part of the output information can be missing for the following
reasons:
- A path that you are passing as a parameter to the application
is not correct.
- The project or directory that you specified does not contain any
source code files.
- The rules in the rule file do not apply to any of the source code
files that you are analyzing.
- Try to use the sample script to run an analysis similar to the
one that is not working for you. Turn on the -debug option
of the sample script to print output information to the screen. If
the sample script produces the correct output, compare it to your
invocation to spot the problem.
- Why do the paths in my output files contain prefixes
such as genericProject_ and analyzedAsJava_?
When
you use the -directory parameter, the code review
application creates a temporary project in the workspace that is specified
in the -data parameter, with a prefix such as genericProject_ or analyzedAsJava_,
for each directory specified. See Deleting temporary projects created by the -directory parameter.
