Exclude paths

Specify folders or files to be excluded from static analysis or testing

Since R2024a

Description

Specify files or folders in a Polyspace Platform (Polyspace Test) project that must be excluded from static analysis or testing.

Set Option

User interface (Polyspace Platform (Polyspace Test), desktop products only): In your project configuration, the option is in the Advanced section of the Project tab.

Why Use This Option

You can add a source folder to a Polyspace® Platform project but exclude a file or subfolder within the folder. To exclude a file, right-click the file in the project and select Exclude File. This action excludes the file for all purposes: static analysis or project build and testing.

To exclude a file or subfolder from static analysis or testing only, use the option Exclude paths.

Settings

If you exclude a source file or folder using the right-click option Exclude File or Exclude Folder in the project, this file or folder gets added as a row under Exclude paths. In this row, the Exclude For column shows All, indicating that the file or folder was excluded from both static analysis and testing.

  • To exclude the file or folder from static analysis only, select Static analysis.

  • To exclude the file or folder from project build and testing only, select Test.

You can also directly enter the path to a file or folder, or use one of these buttons:

  • Select Add file button to add the absolute path to a file, or Add file as relative path button to add a file relative to the project path.

  • Select Add folder button to add the absolute path to a folder, or Add folder as relative path button to add a folder relative to the project path.

To remove a file or folder exclusion, select the corresponding row and click Remove selected button.
