Starting from CAST AIP 8.3.23, CAST Architecture Checker will no longer be installed as part of the CAST AIP setup, whether installing CAST AIP from scratch or on a server where a previous release of CAST AIP exists. CAST Architecture Checker has evolved into a standalone component where all feature requests and bug fixes are now managed. This standalone component can be downloaded from CAST Extend (https://extendng.castsoftware.com/#/search-results?q=archichecker).

Up-to-date documentation can be found here: CAST Architecture Checker.

Check all layers


When working online, you can use this option to display the objects resulting from your analyses (as stored in the CAST Analysis Service) that match the selection criteria you have defined for all your layers and sets.

The option can be accessed:

When selected, the CAST Architecture Checker will query the CAST Analysis Service (via the current connection to the CAST Management Service) and return all matching objects.

Results are displayed with a numerical indication in the title bar of your layers and sets. This number refers to the number of objects that exactly match the selection criteria defined for your layer or set:

Notes If you have a large number of layers and sets and a corresponding application that contains many objects, this option can take some time to complete.

You can use the Check content option to check the matching objects for one layer or set (if you have a large number of layers or sets).

If you are not working online, you will be prompted to connect.
