c++20 introduced type char8_t.
From https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/types:
char8_t - type for UTF-8 character representation, required to be large
enough to represent any UTF-8 code unit (8 bits). It has the same size,
signedness, and alignment as unsigned char (and. therefore, the same size
and alignment as char and signed char), but is a distinct type.
TODO:
Somehow Cppcheck fails to print an ignoredReturnValue message when the
return value is not used (see ticket
https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9369 )
* Allow to configure realloc like functions
* memleakonrealloc: Bring back tests.
The old memleak checker was removed, and the tests for it was removed in
commit 9765a2dfab. This also removed the
tests for memleakOnRealloc. Bring back those tests, somewhat modified
since the checker no longer checks for memory leaks.
* Add realloc to mem leak check
* Add tests of realloc buffer size
* Configure realloc functions
* Add test of freopen
* Allow to configure which element is realloc argument
* Fix wrong close in test
cppcheck now warns for this
* Update manual
* Update docs
* Rename alloc/dalloc/realloc functions
Naming the member function realloc caused problems on appveyor. Rename
the alloc and dealloc functions as well for consistency.
* Change comparisson order
* Remove variable and use function call directly
* Create temporary variable to simplify
* Throw mismatchError on mismatching allocation/reallocation
* Refactor to separate function
* Fix potential nullptr dereference
As pointed out by cppcheck.
This will warn for cases where searching in an associative container happens before insertion, like this:
```cpp
void f1(std::set<unsigned>& s, unsigned x) {
if (s.find(x) == s.end()) {
s.insert(x);
}
}
void f2(std::map<unsigned, unsigned>& m, unsigned x) {
if (m.find(x) == m.end()) {
m.emplace(x, 1);
} else {
m[x] = 1;
}
}
```
In the case of the map it could be written as `m[x] = 1` as it will create the key if it doesnt exist, so the extra search is not necessary.
I have this marked as `performance` as it is mostly concerning performance, but there could be a copy-paste error possibly, although I dont think thats common.
Move valloc() to posix.cfg since it is a legacy POSIX function and not
part of the standard (not even commonly used). It is not available in
msvc (Visual Studio).
wprintf(): The format string must be initialized. So add `<not-uninit/>`
swprintf(): `<formatstr/>` should not be used because Microsoft uses the
same function with a different order of the arguments. Add comment to
document this in the library configuration also. See ticket
https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/4790
strcpy_s belongs to the standard so it must be in std.cfg instead of
windows.cfg.
Configuration for strcpy_s has been improved and tests were added.
