Currently the information severity messages are outputted as error
messages with Severity::Information. This causes constant confusion
as people think it as mildest error severity (and rightfully so).
When it was meant to be for printing messages about the checking
procedure itself (like missing header files etc).
So I'm adding a new function for the ErrorLogger for printing these
informative messages. This makes clear the distinction of errors
found from the code and messages related to the checking itself.
It also makes it easier for clients to handle these separately.
Updated VS9 solution
New VS10 solution that builds cppcheck into a dll used by cli and testrunner.
Functional changes and advantages of new solution:
- Share code between testrunner and cli; ability to share code with gui as well (not yet implemented)
- Files of /lib are no longer compiled twice (should improve build time on single core machines)
- Added configuration for building with PCRE support
- Executables are build into /bin (/bin/debug in debug mode) folder (Should no longer require rebuild when switching between debug and release)
- Completely x64 compatible (contains also x64-debug configuration now)
- Fixed#3628
- Added support for friend
Improved symbol database:
- friend scopes are now set
- Added findScopeByName function
Refactorizations:
- Removed some unnecessary "virtual" keywords
- Removed unnecessary _filename member variable, pass it as argument instead
- Made CppCheck::replaceAll static, since it is independant from a specific CppCheck instance, Pass string to be modified by reference
This is ment to be used for debugging false positive errors in Cppcheck.
Current implementation tries two alternatives. Without all headers or with all headers and prints out the option with
less code. In future versions this could try with individual headers or group of header files.
The "ExtraVersion" can be used for things like Git commit Id,
release tag (version control), release date etc. If the string
is empty, nothing is printed.
Unify usage and API of CppCheck class. Allow only one file checked
at a time, instead of list of files. Clients can then handle file
lists more naturally and as they see fit. Also clients have better
knowledge of how checking status should be handled.
The single-threaded CLI checking was only one using the file list.
Other clients were giving files (to list) one file at a time.
CLI and GUI already do the directory walking for us and we have list
of files to check. So we were duplicating this directory walking.
Practically doing check again for each file if it is a directory.
Which can take some time with large amount of files.
