Decouple scan from the build process

  • SQ version 8.5.0.37579
  • For certain languages, I would like to have to have the option to decouple the scan from the build process. This would be applicable to my Java and C# projects, both of which currently need to have SQ run in tandem with the build or are integrated into the build. My intent here is to allow a SQ scan that doesn’t rely on being run before or during the build. Is there an existing way to have a scan target a build directory or artifact after the build is completed for the above languages?

Hi,

For those two languages, build is required before (for Java) or with (for C#) analysis. In the case of Java it’s because analysis reads not just the code but also the compiled class files. For C# it’s because analysis configuration is gathered during the build.

I know this isn’t the answer you were looking for, but it’s the only one I’ve got.
