Can I use Globalyzer Lite with my standard IDE?

The Globalyzer Lite client can be used with Eclipse, Visual Studio and IntelliJ IDEs.

Using Globalyzer Lite from an Integrated Development Environment

Lite may be used within many IDEs that support external tools, including Visual Studio, IntelliJ IDEA, and Eclipse. Configuring Lite as an external tool takes some initial setup, but is relatively easy to accomplish. Once configured, Lite may be used through the IDE's external tool menu with the click of a button. The recommended, documented tools:

  1. Scan the currently selected file/directory.
  2. Scan everything within the parent directory of the currently selected file/directory.
  3. Scan the entire project.

Demonstration videos are available for:

To configure Lite in the IDE, please see this page: Lite IDE Usage.

The developer can then use the power of the IDE to refactor the relevant issues or to mark false positives in the code using Globalyzer ignore comments, such as $NON-NLS-L$. For more information, see the Globalyzer Comment Tags in False Positives .

Those refactoring and the comment tags are now part of the code: The Continuous Globalization System using the same Lite project definition file will show the same results in the Dashboard.
