Re: [RAT][DISCUSS] Process Archive Files

Hi Claude,

This proposal would, in cases where licenses are discovered, add the
license entries as with STANDARD resource types.  For example:

<resource name='src/test/resources/elements/dummy.jar' type='ARCHIVE'>"
   <license approval="true" family="MIT  " id="MIT" name="The MIT License"/>
   <license approval="true" family="AL   " id="AL" name="Apache License
Version 2.0"/>
</resource>

how would the report on System.out look like?

a) "exploded"

 A Foo.jar
    GPL3     GPL3          GNU General Public License, version 3

 S src/test/java/foo/bar/MyClientTest.java
    GPL3     GPL3          GNU General Public License, version 3

 S src/test/java/foo/bar/YourClientTest.java
    GPL3     GPL3          GNU General Public License, version 3

b) hierarchy?

 A Foo.jar
    GPL3     GPL3          GNU General Public License, version 3

 S Foo.jar://src/test/java/foo/bar/MyClientTest.java
    GPL3     GPL3          GNU General Public License, version 3
or with with indentation
         S src/test/java/foo/bar/YourClientTest.java
    GPL3     GPL3          GNU General Public License, version 3

Thoughts?

Thanks for looking into the issue!

Cheers,

I like the proposed way to handle archives - if this is documented for our users it's a great way forward and a meaningful extension to RAT.
