Share code analyzer profiles

You can share your customized T-SQL code analysis rules with other dbForge Studio users by sending them an XML file containing the settings or saving it in a shared folder.

Change the location of the code analyzer profile

1. Select Tools > Options > Code Analysis > Profiles.

2. Select the profile you want to change the location of, then click Open Selected.

3. In the Configure Code Analysis Profile window, click Save As.

4. In the Save Profile As dialog that opens, specify a path to the new location for the profile (a network share or Dropbox folder, for example).

This will create a copy of the settings file at the specified location.

5. Click OK to save the changes.

Apply a custom code analyzer profile

If you prefer not to share the settings file via a network, you can send an XML file containing the code analysis settings to another dbForge Studio user. They will then need to apply it within their environment.

Note

To find out the location of an XML file with the profile settings, select Tools > Options > Code Analysis > Profiles. Then, right-click the profile for which you want to determine the location and select Copy File Path.

To apply a custom code analysis profile:

1. Save an XML file with the profile settings on your PC.

2. Select Tools > Options > Code Analysis > Profiles.

3. Click Add Existing.

4. Select XML file, then click Open.

The new profile will appear in the list of your profiles.
