Docs for using linter via java

[cfjedimaster]

Less a bug and more a request for help. Given that I've got an instance of the linter, and I see there is a scan API:

linter = createObject("java","com.cflint.CFLint");
linter.scan(selection.path);

But it returns void. How do I get the results?

[cfjedimaster]

Is at as simple as linter.getBugs()?

[cfjedimaster]

Hmm. If I run getBugList on it, I get a struct based on the type of error, and then arrays in there. That works, but is there a way to get list as is, in the order found? I can easily convert a struct of arrays into one array, but just asking if there is something baked in.

Hmm. I didn't put much thought into making it a friendly java API to
consume.

You can get an array of arrays with
lint.getBugs().getBugList().values()

which isn't much a simplification over struct of arrays.

Great, glad you were able to roll it out. I don't have a local CFBuilder
install at the moment, just CFEclipse. I am interested in reading what you
put down about it though.

Forgot to mention:
you can interrogate the version:
var version = createobject('java','com.cflint.Version').getVersion()
(static method - returns a string)

I enhanced the API to include a progress monitor, but you have to explicitly ask for it.

linter = createObject("java","com.cflint.CFLint");
linter.setShowProgress(true);
linter.scan(selection.path);

And added
linter.getBugs().getFlatBugList()
returns an array. (java list == CF array)

It will be available in the next version.
