cppcheck

> A static analysis tool for C/C++ code.

> Instead of syntax errors, it focuses on the types of bugs that compilers normally do not detect.

Recursively check the current directory, showing progress on the screen and logging error messages to a file:

cppcheck . 2> cppcheck.log

Recursively check a given directory, and don't print progress messages:

cppcheck --quiet {path/to/directory}

Check a given file, specifying which tests to perform (by default only errors are shown):

cppcheck --enable={error|warning|style|performance|portability|information|all} {path/to/file.cpp}

List available tests:

cppcheck --errorlist

Check a given file, ignoring specific tests:

cppcheck --suppress={test_id1} --suppress={test_id2} {path/to/file.cpp}

Check the current directory, providing paths for include files located outside it (e.g. external libraries):

cppcheck -I {include/directory_1} -I {include/directory_2} .

Check a Microsoft Visual Studio project (`*.vcxproj`) or solution (`*.sln`):

cppcheck --project={path/to/project.sln}
