The whitelist scan feature enables you to locally ensure that your application is valid for deployment to Oracle Cloud. Whitelist scanning can be invoked in three ways:
As you Type whitelist scan: Occurs on source files that are currently open in the workspace, for example, Java class, or JSF/JSP pages.
Whitelist Builder: When you select File > Save, the Whitelist Builder validates all files in the project, and reports violations in the Markers View, Problems View, and Whitelist Problems View.
On Demand whitelist scan: To perform an on demand whitelist scan, right-click the project in the Project Explorer and select Oracle Cloud Whitelist Scan. An On Demand whitelist scan adds an additional level of scanning to everything on the project build path, for example, jar files. This type of scan is also automatically performed before deployment. Because it is a more expansive operation, it does not occur automatically during file operations like edit, save, or build.
