Before you begin
If you want to save a generated report in HTML format, you
must configure the browser that is linked with
the
development workbench. The method for saving an HTML report to
the file system depends on whether the browser is configured as internal
or external. To configure the browser, from the main menu, select . The default setting is internal. For more information
about setting up a browser for use with
the
workbench, see
Web browser preferences.
About this task
The histories and results that are generated by a code
review are retained while
the
workbench remains open:
- The histories are displayed in reverse chronological order in
the left pane of the Software Analyzer Results view.
- The results of the currently selected history are displayed in
the right pane of the same view.
- The icons and highlighting that mark source code problems are
displayed in the source code files by the COBOL or Remote Systems LPEX editor.
These items are lost when
the
workbench closes. You can preserve a history and its component
results, by saving the report to the workstation's file system in
HTML or PDF format.
Software analysis configurations, including
built-in rules, custom rules, and user-written rules are persistent
across opens and closes of the
workbench.
