This fixes several FPs in the lifetime checker. It also fixes issue [8846](https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/8846):
```cpp
int * f(int a[])
{
return a;
}
```
* Use lifetime analysis for pointers as well
* Fix issue 1143: Pointer to local array
* Update message when using pointers
* Avoid infinite loop in tracing lifetimes
* Inital valueflow lifetime checker
* Forward values
* Add initial tests
* Fix deplicate messages
* Fix traversing nested lambdas
* Turn test case into a todo
* Skip if returning a container
* Fix FP when using references
* Add missing header
* Fix FP from broken scopes
* Fix FP with static variable
* Add test for more FPs
* Parse lambda functions
* Check for capture by value
* Add tests for using a container and lambda together
* Fix cppcheck errors
* Add test for nextAfterAstRightmostLeaf
* Add valueflow tests
* Update error message
* Check for correct lambda token
* Improve error path reporting
* Fix hang when parsing arrays that look almlost like lambdas
* Add valueflow for terminating conditions
* Add valueflow test
* Dont check for same expressions for now to avoid double diagnostics
* Check nesting
* Add more tests
* Ensure conditions happen in order
* Check for null
* Add error path
* Support same expression check as well
* Use early continue
* Skip checking the same token
* Avoid double condtion diagnosis
* Fix FP when in switch statements
* Fix FP when time function
* Skip conditional escapes
* Use simpleMatch
* Fix naming
* Fix typo
* Add check for return value of boolean function
The rule for converting an integer to a boolean is that 0 is mapped to
false and everything else is mapped to true. There is nothing wrong with
the following code (according to the standards):
bool f()
{
return -1;
}
and neither gcc nor clang will warn about it. However, it's a bit
confusing. This commit adds a check that warns when a value other than 0
or 1 is returned from a boolean function (similar to the existing check
that functions with boolean arguments are only passed 0 or 1). Since the
code is perfectly legal, set the severity to "Style".
* Use early continue and remove some braces
* Add testcase with multiple returns
* Avoid null pointer dereference in case of return without operand
* Skip lambdas
Add TODO-test cases that shows FPs when the return type of lambdas are
specified explicitly (this is a problem with findLambdaEndToken).
* Enable testcases
* findLambdaEndToken: Add tests
* Add handling of explicit return in findLambdaEndToken()
* Use AST in findLambdaEndToken()
* Fix ast when lambda is mutable
It is possible to define default template parameter values in forward
declarations and not define any in the actual declaration. Cppcheck
ignores forward declarations and only uses the default values in the
actual declaration so default values in forward declarations are copied
to the actual declaration when necessary.
* insecureCmdLineArgs: Fixed FN in case strdup() copies argv[].
* Formatted the code. There are no functional changes intended.
* Changes due to review comments from Daniel.
* Identify return conditions in multiconditions
* Improve error messages
* Check return statements are always true or false
* Add more tests for FPs
* Fix FP when returning const like variables
* Fix FP when returning pointers or classes
* Fix FP with member variable access
* Check non-local variables
* Use simplematch
* Check for null
* Improve STL interators checking
* Improve error messages for container iterators from different scopes
* Mini refactoring
* Replace hardcoded pattern to ValueType::Type::ITERATOR
* Error messages improvements, more tests and refactoring
* Refactoring after code review
* Put getting operand data into separate function
* Update getErrorMessages and iterator errors ids
* Refactoring
* Fix error
* Refactoring, early return implementation
* Delete redundant code
* Tiny changes in comments
* Fix specialized template regression.
Only check for instantiation of template being processed rather than
count of all instantiations.
* Add 2 more tests.
* insecureCmdLineArgs: Fixed false negatives in case arguments are const.
* Formatted the code, there are functional changes.
* Simplified matching as suggested by Daniel.
* #4241: Check for address of single character passed as string
Add a check that address of a single character is not passed as argument
to argument marked as strings (using strz). The check does not warn if
the address of a character with known value '\0'.
Since ValueFlow currently does not handle global constants (see #7597),
do not warn if the variable is global to avoid FPs when the address of
a global variable assigned to '\0' is passed to a function expecting a
string.
Remove comment in docs saying strz is unused.
* Change asdf to Hello world
* Add test of address to first element in string
* Add error reporting function to getErrorMessages
* Fix strings in test
* Fixed#8693 (Template specialization: Constructor detected as normal function (functionStatic error))
Refactor template simplifier to remove the existing full specialization
function expandSpecialized and allow full specializations to use the
existing function expandTemplate. The function expandTemplate was
modified to either expand the template like it originally did by copying
it or to modify the template in place. Both instantiated and
uninstantiated full specializations are modified in place. This also
fixes#8692 and probably other related tickets as well.
The function simplifyTemplates now tries twice to simplify templates so
more templates can be simplified. We should try as many times as
necessary to find all possible templates. We can't do that now because
uninstantiated templates are left unchanged. It is relatively straight
forward to have the new code also expand in place uninstantiated
templates with their symbolic types but namespaces are not handled
properly (ticket #8671) and it would introduce regressions.
* Fix travis warnings.
The while part of a do-while loop looks almost like a function call, so
extend the check for function calls to ignore while-statements.
Note that there was only an FP when checking c-code, since the check is
disabled for c++-code. Therefore, make sure the test cases are run on a
c-file.
