Static code analysis for projection files

The result of the analysis shows directly in the editor as hints. The static code analysis can also be started as a separate job from the project node.

A Projection comprises of either one or many related business activities and resources (Entities, Queries, Views etc) required for those activities.Projection itself should not be considered as an activity, but as a data model or a schema which makes an activity or a collection of activities possible. (A business task which needs to be handled by a specific user or a group of related users could be included in a single Projection.) Naming: \t 1.Use Pascal case \t 2.Character length could be up to 80 characters. Therefore, avoid shortened names or abbreviations as much as possible.

Performance

• Avoid the prefetch attribute since it causes severe performance issues. Use reference attribute instead.

Maintainability

• Duplicate 'include fragment' statement.
• Entity array needed from master
• Method argument ${object name} is not used.
• Unused ${rule name} ${object name}.

Functionality

• 'Java' implementation to be used with Stream
• 'timezone' specific property only valid on attributes with the datatype Timestamp or TimestampUtc
• Attributes longer than 30 characters should have 'insertable = [false]'
• Component name must match the folder name.
• Default datasources should be used
• EntitySet name should be different from the Entity name.
• Enumeration literals containing characters not valid for Identifier name.
• Incompatible attribute data types
• Invalid CRUD operations for overridden parent entity
• Invalid enumeration type usage
• Method overtakes should be avoided
• Mismatch of key attributes
• Mismatch of maxlength property
• Missing use attributes property in entity override
• Model name must be the same as the file name.
• Name already exists in database
• Name cannot be more than 80 characters long
• Not allowed to prefix DB calls with IFSAPP
• Parameter pass to the 'site()' is an undefined attribute.
• Projection description is mandatory
• Query must have LU attribute
• String literals with non-US-ASCII characters
• Syntax error. Offline projections require additional syntax entries.
• The Type definition for attribute 'Objstate' expects to be a valid Enumeration.
• Unsupported structure content
• Warning. Offline projections require additional syntax entries.
• Wrong usage of inline saving property

Usability

• Attribute/Parameter name must follow IFS naming standards.
• TimestampUtc attribute name should end with Utc.
