The "too many configurations"-message is currently only printed to the
log. So it won't be seen by users integrating Cppcheck using XML
error file. It is also easily missed in the GUI as it only shows up
in the checking log. Making it a information message it shows up
with the other errors and tells user that file was not completely
checked.
Ticket #2527 (Make "too many configurations" message an error message)
The current wording was confusing (espcially related to CLI) since
it said the option will make Cppcheck to check all #ifdef configs.
But this really is case only when there is excessive amount of
those configs and without the option some would be ignored. So
format the option text in line of CLI switch and say it is forcing
not enabling checking of all configurations.
When reading XML file there is no summary data stored so we must
dublicate the message data to summary. Since message can be long
try to find full stop from the message and cut summary to it.
Ticket: #2402 ([GUI] Summary is not shown for loaded .xml file)
Removed replaced EXPECTED with...
WANTED (to-be): The future expected value.
CURRENT (as-is): Documenting how cppcheck behaves now.
This removes the need for an ASSERT_EQUALS but enforces the check for every TODO_ASSERT_EQUALS.
The --exitcode-suppressions option was inconsistent with other
long options by taking the filename as separate argument. Now
it expects format --exitcode-suppressions=filename.txt like
other long options.
Ticket: #1837 (--suppresions file.txt inconsistent)
The option --suppressions-list was inconsistent with other options
so renaming it to --suppressions-list.
Ticket: #1837 (--suppresions file.txt inconsistent)
Ticket #2441 (Parsing of command line arguments breaks after --errorlist)
Instead of stopping processing command line options after
--errorlist process them all. This way e.g. --verbose can be given
also after the --errorlist.
Fix ticket #2496 (Is error reporting for an unneeded parameter wrong?)
There are several command line options / commands after which we
don't want Cppcheck to even try to open any files. Eg. printing
help or listing errors. So add new attribute for CmdLineParser to
track use of these options and exit before checking files when
the attribute is set.
