* Set correct type and size of string and char literals
Use that string and char literal tokens store the prefix. This makes
it possible to distinghuish between different type of string literals
(i.e., utf8 encoded strings, utf16, wide strings, etc) which have
different type.
When the tokens holding the string and character values have the correct
type, it is possible to improve Token::getStrSize() to give the correct
result for all string types. Previously, it would return the number of
characters in the string, i.e., it would give the wrong size unless
the type of the string was char*.
Since strings now can have different size (in number of bytes) and
length (in number of elements), add a new helper function that returns
the number of characters. Checkers have been updated to use the correct
functions.
Having the size makes it possible to find more problems with prefixed
strings, and to reduce false positives, for example in the buffer
overflow checker.
Also, improve the stringLiteralWrite error message to also print the
prefix of the string (if there is one).
* Add comment and update string length
* Fix#9389 ("debug: Executable scope 'x' with unknown function." with "using namespace")
* use static rather than anonymous namespace for new functions
* Use lifetimes to check for returning reference to temporaries
* Check for dangling temporaries
* Check for unknown types for returining by reference
* Remove old returnTemporary check
* Format
* Check for deref op
* Ternary operator return an lvalue reference
* Warn when returning temporaries from member functions
* Improve handling of pointer to function
* Extend lifetimes of const references
* use range loops
* removed redundant string initializations
* use nullptr
* use proper boolean false
* removed unnecessary continue from end of loop
* removed unnecessary c_str() usage
* use emplace_back()
* removed redundant void arguments
This will now warn when doing something like this:
```cpp
template <class T, class K, class V>
const V& get_default(const T& t, const K& k, const V& v) {
auto it = t.find(k);
if (it == t.end()) return v;
return it->second;
}
const int& bar(const std::unordered_map<int, int>& m, int k) {
auto x = 0;
return get_default(m, k, x);
}
```
The lifetime warning is considered inconclusive in this case.
I also updated valueflow to no tinject inconclusive values unless `--inconclusive` flag is passed. This creates some false negatives because library functions are not configured to not modify their input parameters, and there are some checks that do not check if the value is inconclusive or not.
* make ellipsis ... a single token
Using cppcheck -E to preprocess code with ellipsis produces output that
can't be compiled because ... is split into 3 tokens.
* try to fix addon
* Update symbol database such that the override keyword implies that the function is also virtual
* Add test case for implicit override
* change isVirtual to hasVirtualSpecifier
* fix method documentation for getVirtualFunctionCalls and getFirstVirtualFunctionCallStack
* Fix isImplicitlyVirtual to consider the override keyword and document logic
* Fix getFirstVirtualFunctionCallStack and getVirtualFunctionCalls to use isImplicitlyVirtual instead of isVirtual so new test case passes
Building with enhanced clang warnings indicated a large number of
instances with the warning:
`warning: zero as null pointer constant`
Recommended practice in C++11 is to use `nullptr` as value for
a NULL or empty pointer value. All instances where this warning
was encountered were corrected in this commit.
Where warning was encountered in dependency code (i.e. external library)
no chnages were made. Patching will be offered upstream.
* Add non const version of some methods of Token
The aim is to reduce the (ab)use of const_cast.
* Cleanup some more const_cast in valueflow
* Remove useless const_cast
* Remove some const_cast from templatesimplifier
* Remove some const_cast from valueflow
This is trying to fix the issue by fixing the ast and symbol database. First, the ast nodes will be created for the init list and the symbol database will not mark it as a scope. I am not sure if this is the correct approach as I dont really understand how the AST part works.
It did change the AST for `try {} catch (...) {}` but that is because it incorrectly treats `try {}` as an initializer list.
