Create New Globalyzer Scan

After selecting a Globalyzer Project in the Project Explorer view, select Scan=>Manage Scans and click on the New button to create a new Globalyzer Scan.

On the first page, specify the Scan Name, Description, Rule Set to use for scanning, and Source Files to scan. The Rule Set dropdown will be populated with all the Rule Sets that you have created using the Globalyzer Server as well as Rule Sets shared by other team members. Choosing a Rule Set will populate the Source Files tree with only those files that match the File Extensions for that Rule Set. For example, you will not see .java files when you have selected a C# Rule Set. To scan source code that contains several programming languages, add a new Scan for each programming language.

Leaving all the source directories/files unchecked will scan every file in the tree. You can also select individual files and sub-directories, allowing you to fine tune the files that require scanning for internationalization issues. For example, to ignore "dead" code, leave those files or directories unchecked.

Note that if a directory is checked, all files within will be scanned, even if the individual files and sub-directories are not checked.
