You can view previously saved code coverage reports. This
is useful if the desired code coverage report cannot be generated
from the Compiled Code Coverage Results view anymore. Previously
saved Workbench reports can be viewed within the workbench; previously
saved HTML reports can be viewed either within the workbench or in
an external browser.
Viewing previously saved Workbench reports
Procedure
Click File > Open
File... browse to the location on your system
where the report was save, and open the *.analysis file.
If the report was not saved, an import may still be possible:
Navigate to %workspace%\.metadata\.plugins\com.ibm.debug.pdt.codecoverage.core in
your filesystem, where %workspace% is the workspace
where the code coverage report was generated.
Three files are needed to successfully import the code
coverage report: *.clcoveragedata,*.componentMap, and *.metadata.
Locate the files that contain your application name
and the desired timestamp.
Open the Project Explorer view in your workbench
and create a new General project:
Right click in the Project Explorer view and select New > Project...
In the dialog, select General > Project
Click Next, give your project a name, and click Finish.
Copy and paste the .clcoveragedata, .componentMap, and .metadata files
into the new project.
Right click the *.clcoveragedata file and select Compiled Code Coverage > Import. A new result is created in the Compiled Code Coverage
Results view and a Workbench report is opened automatically. You
can work with an imported result in the same way that you work with
a result created by a run.
