You can add AppScan® Source projects
(.ppf files) previously created with AppScan Source
for Analysis to AppScan Source applications.
You can also add Eclipse project files (.epf),
projects created by any of the supported build integration tools (for
example, Ounce/Maven or Ounce/Ant), or project files created with Microsoft Visual
C/C++ (.vcproj or.dsp),
VB.NET (.vbproj), or C# (.csproj).
This table lists the project file types that you can open and scan
with AppScan Source
for Analysis:

Important: If you are working with
an AppScan Source project
that has dependencies in a development environment (for example, an IBM® MobileFirst
Platform project),
ensure that you build the project in the development environment before
importing it. After importing the project, if you modify files in
it, be sure to rebuild it in the development environment before scanning
in AppScan Source (if
you do not do this, modifications made to files will be ignored by AppScan Source).
Note: When you import an existing .NET project, you can specify additional
assemblies to scan. Add these assemblies in the project's Properties view Additional Assemblies tab.
When you add additional assemblies, you can combine .NET projects that build with assemblies
(including third party assemblies) that do not build, in a single scan.
However, this method
should not be used for .NET Core projects. For .NET Core projects, refer to Adding multiple applications.
