This topic provides an overview of creating a software analysis configuration
Before you create an analysis configuration you must do the following
tasks:
- Create any custom categories and custom rules that you want to
use (optional) (see Creating custom categories and rules).
- Open a perspective, typically one of the following: z/OS® Projects, Enterprise
Development, or AIX® COBOL.
- For projects that use local files:
- Create a project, such as a z/OS project.
- Import or create local COBOL source files.
- For projects that use remote files:
- Create a subproject, such an MVS™ subproject
or a z/OS UNIX subproject.
- Include any remote COBOL source files that you want to use.
To create a
software analysis configuration:
- Open the software analysis configuration editor (see Opening the software analysis configuration editor).
- On the Scope tab, select Analyze
selected projects and select the project that you want
to review. (For this step and the next see Creating a software analysis configuration).
- On the Rules tab, select the rules that
you want to use in the code review. For each selected rule, set the
severity to Recommendation, Warning, or Severe.
- Click Apply to save your analysis configuration.
You are now ready to run the COBOL code review on your project
(see Running a software analysis; runtime scope).
