Hi, I've got some short questions about the NOMOS scan engine of version 2.40, because I'm not quite sure if I did understand the general functionality correctly (I'm not a C expert):
- The NOMOS engine uses a lot of if-then-else-statements to check whether license-texts / -references or similar are included in a file and marks findings accordingly, correct? -> seen in file parse.c - These license-texts /-references are defined somewhere in the FOSSY database, correct? -> is it the license_ref-table? - Is it possible to easily add new license (references) just by adding new search pattern texts to this table - WITHOUT adaption of the code? - Does the NOMOS engine only scan for "standard OSS licenses" - are legal relevant phrases scanned by a different agent? (-> regexscan)? - Is it possible to easily add new search phrases to Fossology (e.g. add new search pattern to a table in the database) - WITHOUT adaption of the code? I'm currently researching the functionality of different OSS scan engines for a possible project solution. I would be happy to hear from you.
