Example: Performing an Advanced Search

Follow the steps below to search for all declarations of computational data items in a workspace. Refer to ClipperSearch.bj for argument details.

  1. From a command prompt, enter the following command, substituting file names and paths as appropriate:
    COBOL Analyzer_Installation_Directory\Bin>Brave.exe "[COBOL Analyzer_Installation_Directory]\Scripts\BRP\ClipperSearch.bj" "C:\ClipperSearchLog.txt" "Worksp
    ace=C:\Workspaces\sdkworkspace.rwp" "Criteria=General:Data Queries\Computational
     Data" "Model=COBOL" "ListName=Miscellaneous" "Category=General"
    The command consists of:
    • The path to Brave.exe.
    • The path to the ClipperSearch.bj file.
    • The path to the output log file generated on execution of the command.
    • The path to the workspace.
    • The path to the search criterion in the Interactive Analysis Advanced Search tool, including the tab name and folder names.
    • The Interactive Analysis model for the source files to be searched, "COBOL".
    • The Code Search list where the search results will be displayed.
    • The Code Search category that contains the list.
  2. Check the output log file for errors or warnings. Here is the log file for the command:
