- fix g++ warning:
> lib/checkother.cpp:3779: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions
- fix suncc warning (see [everything2](http://everything2.com/title/C%252B%252B%253A+static+extern+%2522C%2522)):
> "lib/checkmemoryleak.cpp", line 578: Warning (Anachronism): Formal argument __compar of type extern "C" int(*)(const void*,const void*) in call to bsearch(const void*, const void*, unsigned long, unsigned long, extern "C" int(*)(const void*,const void*)) is being passed int(*)(const void*,const void*).
- prefer empty() / isEmpty() over "size() > 0" (cases not caught by stlSize)
- fix word misspellings (mostly comments, a few output lines)
- Parenthesis => Parentheses (both variations were used in the codebase)
- fix typo and wording ("never alwayw") in gui/test/data/benchmark/simple.cpp's CheckOther::unsignedPositive():
```
- "An unsigned variable will never alwayw be positive so it is either pointless or "
+ "An unsigned variable can't be negative so it is either pointless or "
```
- Removed CheckNullPointer::nullPointerAfterLoop(), improved CheckNullPointer::nullPointerByCheckAndDeRef() to cover tests
- Enhanced CheckNullPointer::nullPointerByDeRefAndChec() to check also 'else if' and 'while'
- Implemented consistent behaviour of Variable::typeStartToken/typeEndToken: Skip const and static on all variables.
- Simplified patterns containing "static|" or "const|" when matching typeStartToken.
- Use const string references instead of const strings copies when possible
- Fixed cppcheck warning about postfix increment in CheckIO
- Use symbolDatabase to detect pointers in CheckOther::checkAssignBoolToPointer
- Added support for pointers in self assignement check
- Removed redundant for loop in checknullpointer.cpp
- Fixed warning about signed/unsigned mismatch in cppcheck.cpp by making Settings::_maxConfig unsigned
- Print "inconclusive" tag in cli
- Fixed inconclusive handling in checkbufferoverrun.cpp
- Merged reportInconclusiveError into reportError by adding an additional parameter "bool inconclusive" which is false per default
Refactorizations:
- Replaced || by %oror% in Token::Match patterns
- Replaced some simple patterns by direct comparisions, replaced Match call with simpleMatch
- Increased data encapsulation by making more members private in CheckNullpointer
- More accurate checking for dereferences and non-dereferences
- improved checking for nullpointer dereferences after return statement
- Supports pointer dereferences by std::string
- Code optimization/refactorization
