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.
Adding multiple applications with drag and drop

Adding multiple applications with drag and drop

Procedure

On your workstation, locate the applications (.paf, .sln, .dsw, or .ewf files) or directories (.xcodeproj or .xcworkspace) that you want to add for scanning.
Note: You cannot drag and drop Eclipse workspace directories.

Note: To learn which versions of imported files are supported by AppScan® Source for Analysis, AppScan Source for Automation, and the AppScan Source command line interface, see System requirements and installation prerequisites. At this page, select the tab for the version of AppScan Source that you are using - and then select the AppScan Source component that you are using. If AppScan Source supports opening and scanning files from other development environments, that support is listed in the Compilers and Languages section of the Supported Software tab.
Select or multiselect the applications or directories and then drag them to the Explorer view.
Drop the selection on or beneath the All Applications node.
