Output data files

The output data files are written to the export directory specified in the command prompt when the code review application is started.
The code review application creates a subdirectory for output files each time the application is started. The name of the subdirectory consists of the date plus the time in the format YYYYMMDD_hhmmss. In the pattern, YYYY is the year; MM is the month; DD is the day; hh is the hour; mm is the minutes; and ss is the seconds. For example,
20121008_101746
The number of output data files that are created depends on the number of exporters that are registered with Eclipse. The code review application creates a separate data file for the output data from each registered exporter.
Note: In the software analysis configuration window, you can export code review results to these same types of data files.
If you are analyzing COBOL or PL/I source code files, typically five output data files are generated. The most comprehensive sets of data are in the first two files listed. If the scope includes Java™ source code files, then more output data files are generated.
XML Analysis Results.xml
Contains all the result information in XML format. The XML schema of this format is shown in XML schema. This type of file is a data source for Rational® reporting tools and similar products.
CSV Analysis Results.csv
Contains all the result information in CSV format. The fields and values for this format are shown in CSV fields. You can import this type of file into spreadsheet software and use it as a data source for comparison tools.
JUnit XML Analysis Results.xml
Contains all the result information in JUnit XML format. This format is described in JUnit XML format. You can generate reports from this format with existing tools such as the JUnitReport task in Apache Ant.
Executed Rules.xml
Contains a list of the rules that were applied in the code review, ordered by provider. Each rule entry contains the text of the rule and its assigned severity.
Scanned Resources.xml
Contains a list of the source code files that were analyzed in the review.
XML Analysis Results.xml
Contains a high-level summary of the code review process.
