Code-Scanner

This routine is built to work in Caché/Ensemble/.. and IRIS without any changes
The original code was used to prepare the migration of an installation to IRIS
that was grown over decades.
This dual-sided compatibility was achieved by using pure ObjectScript without
any special features. It scans CLS,MAC,INT,INC for any kind of text.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have git and Docker desktop installed.

Installation

Clone/git pull the repo into any local directory

git clone https://github.com/r-cemper/Code-Scanner.git

To build and start the container run:

$ docker compose up -d && docker compose logs -f

To open IRIS Terminal do:

$ docker-compose exec iris iris session iris
USER>

or using iTerm in browser

http://localhost:42773/iterm/

To access IRIS System Management Portal

http://localhost:42773/csp/sys/UtilHome.csp

How to use it

log into any terminal session

USER>do ^rcc.find

• Next enter some string to be searched
• Verbose allows you to see matches in detail
• Force UpperCase is useful to make scan case insensitive
• Code type allows splitting scan into several steps
• Namespace defines where the scan is executed
  %-routines and %-classes are always excluded for
  namespaces other than %SYS
  UPDATE triggered by a recent request
  running across ALL Namspaces was added.

Practical hint

• run a scan over ALL non-verbose to find affected code types
• next run over INC and apply the required changes
• then run CLS and apply the required changes
• then run over MAC and apply the required changes
• most likely there is no need for any fix in INT
