Customizing your scan

 
To customize your file scanning, specify filtering options either on the command line or by creating a .scanrc configuration file.

Using command line options

 
The command line form for option use is:

scandetail [option(s)] source_files

or

scansummary [option(s)] source_files

For example, the following command line operation indicates that all .cc files should be scanned for critical, obsolete or changed impacts (disregarding nonstandard, warning, or enhancement impacts, as well as non-critical impacts):

scandetail +S Cr -T Ns,Wn,En *.cc 

See Using scandetail and scansummary for more information on the file scanners. See filtering options or scandetail(1) for a description of the file scanner options.

Creating a .scanrc configuration file

 
The STK file scanner database contains information about every changed or obsoleted API and command from HP-UX 10.20 through the latest release of HP-UX. To ensure that no potential problems are missed, the file scanners (scandetail and scansummary) report every occurrence of APIs and commands in your source code. For this reason, they tend to over report and can produce very long output reports.

To shorten these reports and eliminate the irrelevant impacts, you can customize the operation of the scanners with a .scanrc configuration file. This file specifies options that are applied each time you scan your files. An example .scanrc is located in /opt/STK/examples/sample_scanrc, and contains lines for many common file scanner options.

To create a .scanrc file that is optimal for your source base:

  1. Copy /opt/STK/examples/sample_scanrc to your home directory as .scanrc.
  2. Based on your knowledge of the source files you are transitioning, edit .scanrc so that it contains the appropriate options. Uncomment the relevant lines in the file, or add lines if necessary. The table in filtering options contains a description of all the filtering options.
    Note: Do not uncomment -T Ob. This prevents you from seeing impacts about obsolete APIs and commands, which must be resolved if they apply to your code.

Filtering options

 
These options are applicable for both command line operation and for use within the .scanrc file.
 
Note: Many options can be used with either a + or - (include or exclude). You can't use the + and - for any one option. For example, you cannot specify +T Ob and -T En for one scan. The first instruction indicates that you want the scanners to only report obsolete impacts and the second indicates that you want it to disregard enhancement impacts (which was implicit by the first instruction).

 

option  parameters description example
OS transition:
Select the HP-UX version of your source platform or a range.
-O
10.20   -O 11.00
This limits the scan to impacts from version 11.00 to the most recent release.
-O 11.00 - 11i
This limits the scan to impacts pertaining to versions 11.00 through 11i.
11.00  
11i  
11.20 11i version 1.5
11.22 11i version 1.6
impact severity
+S, -S
Cr critical +S Cr or -S Nc
Either of these options limit the scan to critical impacts.
Nc non-critical
impact type
+T, -T
Ob obsolete -T Wn, En, Ns or
-T Wn -T En -T Ns
Only report obsolete or changed impacts. These can also be listed separately like they are in .scanrc.
Ch changed
Ns nonstandard
Wn warning
En enhancement
impact class
+C, -C
UN unclassified +C IPF
Only include IPF impacts.
-C UN, DA
Disregard unclassified and date impacts.
64 64-bit API
ST standards compliance
32 32-64 bit interoperability
BI binary compatibility
NW networking
TH threads
DA date
ACC aC++ and C compiler
F90 Fortran 90 compiler
CBL4 COBOL 4.x compiler
IPF IPF architecture
impact page
+I, -I
<impact number> The .scanrc file contains a complete list of impact numbers.
See Overview of Impact Classifications for a description of each impact classification.
+I CrCh638
Only report instances of critical change impact #638.
-I NcNs338, NcEn593
Report all impacts except non-critical, nonstandard impact #338 and non-critical, enhancement impact #638.
output format
-o
html The scanner output report defaults to html format, but you can specify text format. -o text
Create a text impact report instead of an html report.
text
identifier type
+Y, -Y
F C/C++ functions +Y K,H,I
Only include impacts that are related to C/C++ keywords, header files, or identifiers.
-Y A,C
Exclude impacts related to UNIX arguments or commands.
H C/C++ header files
I C/C++ identifiers
K C/C++ keywords
M C/C++ member
Mf C/C++ member functions
S C/C++ structure
A UNIX arguments
C UNIX command
L library
P path
Ff FORTRAN functions
Fi FORTRAN identifiers
Fk FORTRAN keywords
Fs FORTRAN subroutine
Cc COBOL callable routine
Cf COBOL intrinsic function
Ck COBOL keyword
message
-m
<message> Specify a message to appear in the title of the output report. -m "new scan"
This causes the scansummary report title to be "hp-ux stk scansummary report: new scan."
output filename prefix
-p
<prefix> Replaces stk in the default report name with <prefix>. -p "new"
This causes the scandetail report filename to be new_detail.html (the scansummary report would be new_summary.html).
sort order (scandetail)
-s
lineno Sort output report by source file name and line number. -s synopsis
By default, the scandetail output report sorts impacts by file name. The option above causes the output report to sort by impact type instead.
synopsis Sort output report by impacts.
sort order (scansummary)
-s
class Sort output report by impact classification. -s class
By default, the scansummary output report is sorted by the number of instances of each impact detected. The option above causes the output report to sort by the impact type instead.
verbose
-v
  Produce verbose output to the screen. -v
The default is no verbose output.
