Extension ID

com.castsoftware.cpp.missingtable

What’s new?

Please see Missing tables and procedures for C and CPP - 1.0 - Release Notes for more information.

Description

This extension is designed to analyze SQL queries embedded in C/C++ code and create “missing” SQL and C/C++ table / procedure objects to represent SQL objects that have not been delivered for analysis. Links to these objects are also created. The primary goal of the extension is to ensure that a full transaction is identified by CAST, resulting from the SQL queries embedded in the C/C++ code, even if none or only part of the referenced SQL objects are delivered for analysis.

Compatibility

Download and installation instructions

The extension will be automatically downloaded and installed in CAST Console when C/C++ source code is delivered for analysis. You can manage it using the Application - Extensions interface.
