Product Overview

The architecture of Rational Asset Analyzer comprised several key components. The analysis engine was responsible for parsing and analyzing source code. The data repository stored the analysis results and metadata.

The reporting module generated reports on application dependencies and code structure. The tool used a relational database for storing analysis results. The GUI and CLI provided administrative interfaces.

The CLI allowed for scripting and automation of analysis tasks. For example, a script could be created to scan multiple source files and generate a report. The tool did not have built-in security features such as authentication methods or access control models.

The tool is no longer supported; consider alternatives like Micro Focus Enterprise Analyzer or CAST Highlight.
