SonarLint analysis

Topaz Workbench's integration with SonarLint enables developers to rapidly deliver quality COBOL code by providing them with automated on-the-fly quality and standards checking. This integration includes the following functionality:

  • To simplify the configuration of SonarLint, Topaz Workbench adds default properties to SonarLint's suffix Scanner Properties.
  • If you want to run the SonarLint analyzer in locked mode, you must force the source format in SonarLint to “free”.  Perform the following steps to make your source code free:
    1. Right-click on your project in the Project Explorer > Properties > SonarLint > Analyzer Properties > New.
    2. Enter the name as sonar.cobol.sourceFormat and enter the value as free.
    3. Click Apply.
  • For online projects, copybooks are automatically downloaded prior to SonarLint analysis if a concatenation list has been configured.
  • Topaz Workbench provides a mechanism for pointing SonarLint to the copybook location for online projects (via a concatenation list).
