The code review application is started from the Linux or Windows command line. Its capabilities are similar to the capabilities of the code review process that is started from the user interface of the product workbench. It supports the same language-specific standard rules for COBOL and PL/I. It supports the same types of custom rules and categories for COBOL and PL/I, and the same types of user-written rules for COBOL. It uses the same rule severities and has the same concept of scope.
The code review application does not explicitly support Java™ source code files and does not document support for Java. However, it does recognize and process some Java code review rules and some Java source code files. If a rule file includes Java code review rules, and Java source code files are included in the scope, then the code review application includes the Java results in its output information and in its output data files.
