/**
 *
 * @mainpage Cppcheck
 * @version 2.8
 *
 * @section overview_sec Overview
 * Cppcheck is a simple tool for static analysis of C/C++ code.
 *
 * When you write a checker you have access to:
 *  - %Token list - the tokenized code
 *  - Syntax tree - Syntax tree of each expression
 *  - %SymbolDatabase - Information about all types/variables/functions/etc
 *    in the current translation unit
 *  - Library - Configuration of functions/types
 *  - Value flow analysis - Data flow analysis that determine possible values for each token
 *
 * Use --debug-normal on the command line to see debug output for the token list
 * and the syntax tree. If both --debug-normal and --verbose is used, the symbol
 * database is also written.
 *
 * The checks are written in C++.
 *
 * @section detailed_overview_sec Detailed overview
 * This happens when you execute cppcheck from the command line:
 * -# CppCheckExecutor::check this function executes the Cppcheck
 * -# CmdLineParser::parseFromArgs parse command line arguments
 *   - The Settings class is used to maintain settings
 *   - Use FileLister and command line arguments to get files to check
 * -# ThreadExecutor create more instances of CppCheck if needed
 * -# CppCheck::check is called for each file. It checks a single file
 * -# Preprocess the file (through Preprocessor)
 *   - Comments are removed
 *   - Macros are expanded
 * -# Tokenize the file (see Tokenizer)
 * -# Run the runChecks of all check classes.
 * -# Simplify the tokenlist (Tokenizer::simplifyTokenList2)
 * -# Run the runSimplifiedChecks of all check classes
 *
 * When errors are found, they are reported back to the CppCheckExecutor through the ErrorLogger interface.
