Generating Reports |
Choose Project->Reports Generate from the menu bar to begin generating reports. You will see the Report Configuration/Generation dialog.
HTML or text files may be generated. Specify the directory location where the generated reports are to be saved.
When generating HTML reports, you may generate multiple HTML files for each report type. Choose Alphabetic to generate multiple HTML files per report which are split up alphabetically by the first letter of the entity name. Choose Every n Entities to generate multiple HTML files per report which are split up every “n” number of entities. It is recommended that you split up the HTML files for large projects as a single HTML report file may be too large for the HTML browser. The “home” file is index.html. By default, a single HTML file per report will be generated for each letter of the alphabet.
When generating text files, you may generate one text file of the specified name (by choosing File). Alternately, you may generate multiple text files (by choosing Separate) and specify a common filename prefix. The file extensions of each text file will denote the separate reports. Specify the desired directory location with the file prefix.
Note: Reports can also be generated from the command line program “repc”. Refer to Generating Reports for more details about “repc”.
In the Report Configuration/Generation dialog, click Options to open a dialog that allows you to set various report options, including whether to write the report generation date and time on the report and whether to hide unresolved items in reports
.
In the Report Configuration/Generation dialog, click Choose Reports to open a dialog that allows you to select the reports to be generated.
See Text and HTML Reports for descriptions of the types of reports you can generate.
Once you have specified the types of reports to be generated, click Generate in the Report Configuration/Generation dialog to generate the selected reports.
Note: You may want to temporarily toggle off anti-virus protection programs while reports are being generated. This may speed the process of creating reports. If you do this, be sure to turn on virus checking after report generation is finished.
As with the analysis, report generation status is written to the Status Line and to the Command Results window. See Setting Logging Options for ways to limit the log to displaying warning and/or error messages.
