Profiles
List of configuration profiles.
Profiles are displayed over two columns, specifying the profile name and version number.
The version number is used to detect profile modifications. If a project has been analyzed with profile version "n" and if the profile is changed to version "n+1", the analyzer knows that all data are potentially inconsistent relative to the configuration and will automatically force the analysis of all programs, even if they have not been modified.
Multiple-selection list.
Note: you can select or deselect several non-consecutive profiles by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking the left mouse button.
