Claude Warren commented on RAT-453:
-----------------------------------
[~ggregory]
I went back and looked at the code. What we are doing is adding content to the
output file. Most builds write the report to "rat.txt" or some such file name.
As far as what gets logged if there is a failure
One ERROR line: Unexpected count for %s, limit is [%s,%s]. Count: %s
Example: "Unexpected count for UNAPPROVED, limit is [0,0]. Count: 3"
One INFO line which for the above ERROR line is:
UNAPPROVED (Unapproved) is a count of unapproved licenses.
The the limits for the counters can be set on the command line (or via the UIs).
The list of counters and descriptions is:
APPROVED: A count of approved licenses.
ARCHIVES: A count of archive files.
BINARIES: A count of binary files.
DOCUMENT_TYPES: A count of distinct document types.
GENERATED: A count of generated files.
LICENSE_CATEGORIES: A count of distinct license categories.
LICENSE_NAMES: A count of distinct license names.
NOTICES: A count of notice files.
STANDARDS: A count of standard files.
UNAPPROVED: A count of unapproved licenses.
UNKNOWN: A count of unknown file types.
So we would produce 11 error log entries if all 11 counters were violated, but
only 1 if only one counter was violated.
