## About the name ##
|
|
|
|
The original name of this program is "C++check" but it was later changed to "cppcheck".
|
|
|
|
Despite the name, Cppcheck is designed for both C and C++.
|
|
|
|
## Manual ##
|
|
|
|
A manual is available online:

|
## Compiling ##
|
|
|
|
Any C++ compiler should work.
|
|
|
|
To build the GUI, you need Qt.
|
|
|
|
When building the command line tool, PCRE is normally used.
|
|
PCRE is optional.
|
|
|
|
There are multiple compilation choices:
|
|
* qmake - cross platform build tool
|
|
* Windows: Visual Studio
|
|
* Windows: Qt Creator + mingw
|
|
* gnu make
|
|
* g++
|
|
|
|
### qmake ###
|
|
|
|
You can use the gui/gui.pro file to build the GUI.
|
|
|
|
cd gui
|
|
qmake
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
### Visual Studio ###
|
|
|
|
Use the cppcheck.sln file. The rules are normally enabled.
|
|
|
|
To compile with rules (pcre dependency):
|
|
* the pcre dll is needed. it can be downloaded from: http://cppcheck.sf.net/pcre-8.10-vs.zip
|
|
|
|
To compile without rules (no dependencies):
|
|
* remove the preprocessor define HAVE_RULES from the project
|
|
* remove the pcre.lib from the project
|
|
|
|
### Qt Creator + mingw ###
|
|
|
|
The PCRE dll is needed to build the CLI. It can be downloaded here:
|
|
http://software-download.name/pcre-library-windows/
|
|
|
|
### gnu make ###
|
|
|
|
To build Cppcheck with rules (pcre dependency):
|
|
|
|
make HAVE_RULES=yes
|
|
|
|
To build Cppcheck without rules (no dependencies):
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
### g++ (for experts) ###
|
|
|
|
If you just want to build Cppcheck without dependencies then you can use this command:
|
|
|
|
g++ -o cppcheck -Ilib cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp
|
|
|
|
If you want to use --rule and --rule-file then dependencies are needed:
|
|
|
|
g++ -o cppcheck -lpcre -DHAVE_RULES -Ilib -Iexternals cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp externals/tinyxml/*.cpp
|
|
|
|
### mingw ###
|
|
|
|
make LDFLAGS=-lshlwapi
|
|
|
|
### Cross compiling Win32 (CLI) version of Cppcheck in Linux ###
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install mingw32
|
|
make CXX=i586-mingw32msvc-g++ LDFLAGS="-lshlwapi"
|
|
mv cppcheck cppcheck.exe
