Viewing static analysis results

You can view the results of an analysis in the Analysis Results view. You can filter the results to display results that correspond to each rule in your analysis configuration, or only those results that do not conform to a particular rule. From the Analysis Results view, you can also open resources in their associated editors to correct problems, or apply quick fixes, if they are available.

To view the results of an analysis:

In the Analysis Results view, expand the top-level node of the tree that corresponds to your analysis configuration and complete one of the following steps:

To view only the results that do not conform to a particular rule, right-click anywhere in the view and then click Show Results Only.
To list the resources associated with each rule, expand the rule categories and rule nodes.

To open a resource in its associated editor, double-click the resource. The editor that displays your resource is determined by the author of the rule and the type of data in the resource. For example, a source code file might open in a UML diagram or in a text editor. If you run a Java code review with the analysis provider in TPTP, analysis results open as editable Java source code files.

The results are listed in chronological order and are grouped into the same categories that you specified in the analysis configuration.
