Some projects only use this (older?) style of Qt header inclusion.
There are (older) books and examples which use this style, too.
It seems to be perfectly valid, so we should support it.
Is not allowed to define a type in an alias template definition.
This code:
template<int N>
using A1 = struct B1 { static auto constexpr value = N; };
A1<0> a1;
produces this output:
2: } ;
3: struct B1 { static const auto value = 0 a1 ;
test.cpp:2:57: error: Analysis failed. If the code is valid then please
report this failure. [cppcheckError]
using A1 = struct B1 { static auto constexpr value = N; };
^
because it tries to instantiate the invalid alias template definition
and generates garbage code.
This will now warn when doing something like this:
```cpp
template <class T, class K, class V>
const V& get_default(const T& t, const K& k, const V& v) {
auto it = t.find(k);
if (it == t.end()) return v;
return it->second;
}
const int& bar(const std::unordered_map<int, int>& m, int k) {
auto x = 0;
return get_default(m, k, x);
}
```
The lifetime warning is considered inconclusive in this case.
I also updated valueflow to no tinject inconclusive values unless `--inconclusive` flag is passed. This creates some false negatives because library functions are not configured to not modify their input parameters, and there are some checks that do not check if the value is inconclusive or not.
Previously, external files were not searched at all, and dependencies
on header files in cli was not taken into account for test files.
To add dependency of headers in externals, we also need to search for
includes with angular brackets.
Version 1.88 changed the parsing of the MISRA rules file adding a
severity setting. This caused a regression in rule parsing.
In particular the following format used to parse cleanly and produce
rule output that would show the severity as part of the rule text.
Rule 1.2
Advisory
Rule text goes here.
Rule 1.3
Required
More rule text goes here.
As of 1.88 a file structured like above would parse as having no rules.
The problem is the use of blank lines as a rule delimiter. The
modified rule parser wants to see a rules formatted like below:
Rule 3.1 Required
R3.1 text.
Rule 4.1 Required
R4.1 text.
or:
Rule 1.1
Add this rule and parse to next, skipping empty lines.
Rule 1.2
Rule text.
Any rule text that did not fall into one of the above formats would
result in incomplete rule text parsing.
Change the parsing of the rule text file so that blank lines are ignored
instead of treating them as a delimiter between rules. Instead use the
start of the next rule as a delimiter for the end of the previous rule.
This allows both of the newer formats but also supports the behavior of
pre-1.88 versions.
Change units tests that were specifically forbidding the use of blank
lines to ones that allow blank lines.
