Configuring applications and projects
Before you scan, you must configure applications and projects. This section explains the Application Discovery Assistant, New Application Wizard, and the New Project Wizard. You will learn how to configure attributes for AppScan® Source for Analysis. In addition, this section teaches you how to add existing applications and projects for scanning - and how to add files to projects.
Configuring applications
You can use the New Application Wizard or the Application Discovery Assistant to create applications. The Application Discovery Assistant automates application setup for you, whereas the New Application Wizard allows you to add applications, guiding you through the configuration process. The wizard helps you manually create a project or add existing projects to an application. This section describes these two methods for adding application and basic configuration tasks.
Adding multiple applications
Rather than adding just one application at a time, when you first begin working with AppScan® Source for Analysis, you may want to import multiple applications. The Select Applications dialog box allows you to select a root directory from which to search for AppScan Source applications (.paf) or Visual Studio solution files (.sln). Multiple applications can also be added for scanning by dragging and dropping them into the Explorer view.

Note: You cannot search for multiple Xcode project (.xcodeproj) or Xcode workspace (.xcworkspace) directories via user interface actions. However, you can drag and drop multiple Xcode project and Xcode workspace directories to the Explorer view.

Note: To add multiple WAR and EAR files, you can by drag and drop a directory that contains the files. For more information, see Adding an existing application with drag and drop.
