Analyse jar and not java file

[A-AFTAHI]

When i run spotbugs on jar files it works just fine but when i run it on standalone .java file, i get the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: IOException while scanning codebases

SpotBugs works on compiled files, not source files, for starters. How are you trying to execute it?

[A-AFTAHI]

I wanna use it to test mobile applications code quality. so i reverse the .apk to java files than i run the spotbugs on those files.

[ThrawnCA]

How are you running it? Via Ant? Eclipse? Standalone? Can you paste the command that you're running?

[A-AFTAHI]

i run it standalone : ./spotbugs -textui -xml:withMessages file.java

[ThrawnCA]

As mentioned, can you try it on bytecode rather than Java source?

[A-AFTAHI]

ok i will try to do it. thanks. ‌
