Sources were built with Clang but with increased verbosity of error detection.
A number of syntax and semantic warnings were encountered. Commit adds
changes to correct these warnings.
Some changes involve removing extra, and unncessary, semi-colons at EOL
(e.g. at end of switch clause).
Project astyle settings are not currently setup to detect if a file is to
have an extra carriage return after the last line of data. Two files were
altered to ensure an extra carriage return.
An advisory to enhance code was encountered in triage code. Clang advisory
on a for-loop interation value suggested that:
`use reference type 'const QString &' to prevent copying`
Building with enhanced clang warnings indicated a large number of
instances with the warning:
`warning: zero as null pointer constant`
Recommended practice in C++11 is to use `nullptr` as value for
a NULL or empty pointer value. All instances where this warning
was encountered were corrected in this commit.
Where warning was encountered in dependency code (i.e. external library)
no chnages were made. Patching will be offered upstream.
Building on #1874, commit adds user controls to choose
or edit style in cppcheck-gui ONLY. Commit does not
address CodeEditor style usage in triage app at this time.
Code Editor style can be altered from the added "Code Editor"
tab in the user preferences. The user has the option to select
default light, default dark, or to customize.
If user leaves the style set to light or dark defaults, this
will be reflected in the choices shown in the preferences
dialog.
User choice for Code Editor Style is saved in the cppcheck-gui
preferences under the heading "EditorStyle".
- Moved setting from "Advanced" to "General" tab
-> Moved remaining single item, too, as it does not make sense to keep a tab for a single option. This option is now shown at the bottom of the dialog
- Replaced [inconclusive] string in "Summary" Column by extra column "Inconclusive", which is only visible if inconclusive checking is enabled
- fix g++ warning:
> lib/checkother.cpp:3779: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions
- fix suncc warning (see [everything2](http://everything2.com/title/C%252B%252B%253A+static+extern+%2522C%2522)):
> "lib/checkmemoryleak.cpp", line 578: Warning (Anachronism): Formal argument __compar of type extern "C" int(*)(const void*,const void*) in call to bsearch(const void*, const void*, unsigned long, unsigned long, extern "C" int(*)(const void*,const void*)) is being passed int(*)(const void*,const void*).
- prefer empty() / isEmpty() over "size() > 0" (cases not caught by stlSize)
- fix word misspellings (mostly comments, a few output lines)
- Parenthesis => Parentheses (both variations were used in the codebase)
- fix typo and wording ("never alwayw") in gui/test/data/benchmark/simple.cpp's CheckOther::unsignedPositive():
```
- "An unsigned variable will never alwayw be positive so it is either pointless or "
+ "An unsigned variable can't be negative so it is either pointless or "
```
Add new "Advanced" page to preferences-dialog and add there a
checkbox for enabling inconclusive checks. Now that checkbox is
the only control in that new page but there will be more controls
later on.
