| <h1>API Use Scan Problems Ant Task</h1> |
| <h2>Purpose</h2> |
| <p>This task resolves the API Use Scans in a profile relative to a baseline. It reports the references to the types, methods and fields which are now missing from the profile. </p> |
| <h2>Usage</h2> |
| <h3>Description</h3> |
| <p>The name of the Ant task is: <code>apitooling.apiusescanproblems</code>. To be used, the jar file <code>apitooling-ant.jar</code> has to be on the Ant |
| classpath.</p> |

| </tr> |
| <tr> |
| <td valign="top">profile</td> |
| <td valign="top">This attribute specifies the location of the current product or profile that you want to resolved the API Use Scans against. |
| <br/><br/> |
| It can be a .zip, .jar, .tgz, .tar.gz file, or a directory that corresponds to the Eclipse installation folder. This is the |
| directory is which you can find the Eclipse executable. |
| <br/><br/>The location is specified using an absolute path. |
| </td> |
| <td align="center" valign="top">Yes</td> |
| </tr> |
| <tr> |
| <td valign="top">report</td> |
| <td valign="top">Set the output location where the reports will be generated. |
| <br/><br/> |
| Once the task is completed, reports are available in this directory. A sub-folder is created |
| for each component that has problems to be reported. Each sub-folder contains a file called "report.xml". |
| <br/><br/>The location is specified using an absolute path. |
| </td> |
| <td align="center" valign="top">Yes</td> |
| </tr> |
| <tr> |
| <td valign="top">apiusescans</td> |
| <td valign="top">This attribute specifies the comma-separated list of the locations of the API Use Scans that you want to check against the profile. |
| <br/><br/> |
| It can be a .zip file or a directory that corresponds to the API Use Scan report. This is the directory is which you can find the XML folder in the Use Scan. |
| </td> |
| <td align="center" valign="top">Yes</td> |
| </tr> |
| <tr> |
| <td valign="top">excludelist</td> |
| <td valign="top">Set the exclude list location. |
| <br/><br/>The exclude list location specifies a text file listing bundles to be excluded from the analysis. |
| By default all bundles in the profile are analyzed. The include and exclude list attributes can be used to |
| selectively include and exclude bundles. The include list seeds the set of bundles to be analyzed (when omitted, |
| all bundles are included), and the exclude list is then applied. |
| Each line of the file specifies one of: |
| <ul> |
| <li>a specific bundle name</li> |
| <li>a regular expression to match against bundle names (lines being with "R:")</li> |
| <li>a comment (lines being with '#')</li> |
| </ul> |
| <br/>The location is specified using an absolute path. |
| <br/>Following is an example exclude list: |

| The preferences are used to configure problem severities. Problem severities have three possible values: Ignore, Warning, or Error. The set of problems detected is defined by corresponding problem preference keys in API tools. |
| <br/>The location is specified using an absolute path. If the given location doesn't exist, the preferences won't be set. |

| Lines starting with '#' are ignored. The format of the preferences file looks like this: |

| API_USE_SCAN_METHOD_SEVERITY=Error |

| <pre> |
| <b><font color="#0000ff"><apitooling.apiusescanproblems |
| profile=<font color="#008000">"D:\eclipse\3.7\eclipse"</font> |

| </pre> |
| <p>This will run the task creating <code>report.xml</code> files inside the folder <code>D:\reports\xml</code>. The types, methods and fields from the use scans |
| will be resolved in the profile at <code>D:\eclipse\3.7\eclipse</code> and the missing ones will be reported. |
| It will use the exclude list from the file <code>D:\exclude_list_external.txt</code> to reduce the number of bundles for which problems to report.</p> |
| <p>Problem severities will be generated as specified by <code>D:\tests_api\org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.prefs</code>.</p> |
| <p>Since debug is enabled, some debug tracing will show up in the Ant console.</p> |
