Codebase Search

The following are known issues related to codebase searches in Code Insight.

Issues with Code Search highlights in UTF-8 files (PAS-10849)

UTF-8 files do not display correctly in Detector, and highlighting is either unavailable or shifted by one or more characters. Detector supports only encodings for which each character is a single byte, such as US-ASCII and ISO-8859.

Workaround: Switch the file type from “Auto” to “Binary”, and use “CTRL-F” to locate the search result within the file.

Code Search hanging during index process

Some customer scans have hung during indexing while in Tika processing. To avoid this problem, set indexTikaParseLen = 0 in scan.properties.
