A limitation on code review of remote files

This topic describes a limitation on running a code review on remote source files.

To run a code review on a remote source file (COBOL or PL/I) you must first open the remote file in the editor and then start the code review from a popup menu in the editor. This method causes the scope of the code review to be limited to the opened source file, overriding whatever scope is specified in the analysis configuration. The steps are described in the help subtopic Starting from the editor.

This restriction means that you cannot run a code review on one or more source files that you select in the Remote Systems view. Instead you must run the code review individually for each remote file, by opening the remote source file in the editor and starting the code review from the editor.

Alternatively, you can copy a set of remote source code files from the Remote Systems view to a local project, and then run the files as a group as local files. See Starting from a project explorer view.
