The code review application for Linux and Windows

The code review application for Linux and Windows is a command-line interface for the Code Review component. It provides many of the same functions that are available from the Code Review graphical user interface. It also provides some additional functions.

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, the same types of custom rules and categories for COBOL, and the same types of user-written custom rules for COBOL. It uses the same rule severities and has the same concept of scope.

The code review application also includes the following features:

Processing of Java source files

The code review component does not explicitly support Java™ source code files and does not document support for Java. However, the code review application 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.
