Project Analyzer and Selected Entity Project Diagrams

Project Analyzer and the Selected Entity Project diagram work together to provide insights into your project. Project Analyzer is a document generated in the Problems view area. Selected Entity Project diagram provides a visualization of the whole project or of selected project elements, including dependencies. Selected Entity Project diagrams can display all the resources in a project, how they interact with one another, and how they use or update other resources at run time. You can see concepts, events, rules, rule functions, channels, destinations, scorecards, shared resources, and all other resources of a particular project in a Selected Entity Project diagram. It also shows all dependencies in a project.

You can set preferences to determine whether project analyzer runs when you create a Selected Entity Project diagram or not. You can use a menu option to create the project analyzer report without creating the Selected Entity Project diagram.

Types of Links

A Selected Entity Project diagram has three types of links:

  • Links, represented by continuous lines, indicate inheritance or containment.
  • Scope Links, represented by dashed lines, indicate resources in the scope.
  • Usage Links, represented by dashed lines with dots, indicate resources that can be used.
