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.
Refactored simplifyTemplateAliases to iterate over template type aliases
rather than instantiations. This fixed template type aliases that were
not templates.
Don't instantiate templates in template type aliases. They will get
instantiated once the type alias is instantiated. This required
increasing the template simplifier pass count to 3 so one of the
existing tests continued to work.
* Fix issue 8890: AST broken calling member function from templated base class
* Format
* Check for double bracket
* Add test to createLinks2
* Remove extra test
* Reduce test case for links
Change the astStringVerbose() recursion to extend a string instead of
returning one. This has the benefit that for tokens where the recursion
runs deep (typically large arrays), the time savings can be substantial
(see comments on benchmarks further down).
The reason is that previously, for each token, the astString of its
operands was constructed, and then appended to this tokens astString.
This led to a lot of unnecessary string copying (and with that
allocations). Instead, by passing the string by reference, the number
of temporary strings is greatly reduced.
Another way of seeing it is that previously, the string was constructed
from end to beginning, but now it is constructed from the beginning to
end. There was no notable speedup by preallocating the entire string
using string::reserve() (at least not on Linux).
To benchmark, the changes and master were tested on Linux using the
commands:
make
time cppcheck --debug --verbose $file >/dev/null
i.e., the cppcheck binary was compiled with the settings in the
Makefile. Printing the output to screen or file will of course take
longer time.
In Trac ticket #8355 which triggered this change, an example file from the
Wine repository was attached. Running the above cppcheck on master took
24 minutes and with the changes in this commmit, took 22 seconds.
Another test made was on lib/tokenlist.cpp in the cppcheck repo, which is
more "normal" file. On that file there was no measurable time difference.
A synthetic benchmark was generated to illustrate the effects on dumping
the ast for arrays of different sizes. The generate code looked as
follows:
const int array[] = {...};
with different number of elements. The results are as follows (times are
in seconds):
N master optimized
10 0.1 0.1
100 0.1 0.1
1000 2.8 0.7
2000 19 1.8
3000 53 3.8
5000 350 10
10000 3215 38
As we can see, for small arrays, there is no time difference, but for
large arrays the time savings are substantial.
This is trying to fix the issue by fixing the ast and symbol database. First, the ast nodes will be created for the init list and the symbol database will not mark it as a scope. I am not sure if this is the correct approach as I dont really understand how the AST part works.
It did change the AST for `try {} catch (...) {}` but that is because it incorrectly treats `try {}` as an initializer list.
This handles concatenated strings and characters from simplecpp.
Previously, L'c' would be preprocessed to the tokens "L" and "'c'".
cppcheck would then remove the "L" token and set "'c'" to be a wide
character literal. Now, it needs to remove the prefix instead.
When doing this, add handling of utf32 encoded literals (U) and UTF-8
encoded literals (u8).
* Modify template simplifier to add forward declarations of some template functions so symbol database can make sense of the expanded templates.
* Fix travis.
* findLambdaEndToken: Add tests
* Add handling of explicit return in findLambdaEndToken()
* Use AST in findLambdaEndToken()
* Fix ast when lambda is mutable
* Don't remove the volatile keyword so we can properly overload functions.
I fixed all the checks that had tests that use volatile. There will
probably be more changes needed due to lack of test coverage for
volatile in some checks.
* Fix unused private function warning.
Remove TEXT() macro from windows.cfg and handle it internally where it
can be correctly simplified (Ansi vs. Unicode).
Also add handling of _TEXT() macro which is just a synonym for _T().
Add tests to verify correct function and macro simplification.
* Fix#8382 (Syntax error when scanning code with template and attribute)
This commit only addresses #8382. There are issues concerning which
versions of C++ should be supported and also generic C++ 14 attribute
support which can be revisited later.
* Remove all C++ style attributes.
Remove all C++ style attributes when C++ version is 11 or greater.
Rename simplify function to simplifyCPPAttributes.
Handle more cases of roreturn function attribute.
