Appbuilder Integration

The Progress Appbuilder already has a menu-item "Check Syntax", you can also add a menu-item "Prolint" for the extensive code inspection of Prolint.

To create the new menu-item you will have to install a custom event. This is how: locate file "gui/adecomm/_adeevnt.p" in the DLC directory and add this single line to it:

{prolint/ab/custom_evnt.i}  

You may have to compile...save adecomm/_adeevnt.p and restart the Appbuilder before the change has effect.

Now, when you open a file in the Appbuilder and choose the Prolint menu-item, the currently selected file will be inspected by Prolint. You can configure a profile with the name "Appbuilder" to specify which rules and outputhandlers are used.
Notice however that only the saved file will be inspected, not the version in memory that may be different from the saved version!
