About this task
The histories and results that are generated by a code
review are retained while the workbench remains open:
- The histories are displayed in reverse chronological order in
the history pane of the Software Analyzer Results view,
which is on the left side of the view.
- The results of the currently selected history are displayed in
the analysis domain tabs, which are on the right side of the view.
- The highlighting that marks source code problems are displayed
in the source code files by the EGL editor.
These items are lost when the workbench closes. You can preserve
a history and its component results, by saving the report to the workstation's
file system in XML format.
Software analysis configurations,
including built-in rules, custom rules, and user-written rules are
persistent across opens and closes of the workbench.
