* build: remove -Wabi and add -Wundef gcc >= 8 throws a warning about -Wabi (without a specific ABI version) being ignored, while -Wundef seems more useful (as shown by the change in config.h, which was probably an unfortunate typo) travis.yaml should probably be updated soon, but was left out from this change as the current images don't yet need it * lib: unused function in valueflow refactored out since 8c03be32122ed85af89050eb1ad07ddd7038508e lib/valueflow.cpp:3124:21: warning: unused function 'endTemplateArgument' [-Wunused-function] * readme: include picojson * make: also clean exe

About
|
|
|
|
The original name of this program is "C++check" but it was later changed to "cppcheck".
|
|
|
|

A manual is available online:

Compiling
|
|
|
|
Any C++11 compiler should work. For compilers with partial C++11 support it may work. If
|
|
your compiler has the C++11 features that are available in Visual Studio 2013 / GCC 4.6
|
|
then it will work.
|
|
|
|
To build the GUI, you need Qt.
|
|
|
|
When building the command line tool, PCRE is optional. It is used if you build with rules.
|
|
|
|
There are multiple compilation choices:
|
|
* qmake - cross platform build tool
|
|
* cmake - cross platform build tool
|
|
* Windows: Visual Studio
|
|
* Windows: Qt Creator + mingw
|
|
* gnu make
|
|
* g++ 4.6 (or later)
|
|
* clang++
|
|
|
|
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 file is configured for Visual Studio 2015, but the platform
|
|
toolset can be changed easily to older or newer versions. The solution contains platform
|
|
targets for both x86 and x64.
|
|
|
|
To compile with rules, select "Release-PCRE" or "Debug-PCRE" configuration.
|
|
pcre.lib (pcre64.lib for x64 builds) and pcre.h are expected to be in /externals then.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
========
|
|
Simple build (no dependencies):
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
The recommended release build is:
|
|
make SRCDIR=build CFGDIR=cfg HAVE_RULES=yes
|
|
|
|
Flags:
|
|
SRCDIR=build : Python is used to optimise cppcheck
|
|
CFGDIR=cfg : Specify folder where .cfg files are found
|
|
HAVE_RULES=yes : Enable rules (pcre is required if this is used)
|
|
|
|
g++ (for experts)
|
|
=================
|
|
If you just want to build Cppcheck without dependencies then you can use this command:
|
|
g++ -o cppcheck -std=c++11 -Iexternals -Iexternals/simplecpp -Iexternals/tinyxml -Ilib cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp externals/simplecpp/simplecpp.cpp externals/tinyxml/*.cpp
|
|
|
|
If you want to use --rule and --rule-file then dependencies are needed:
|
|
g++ -o cppcheck -std=c++11 -lpcre -DHAVE_RULES -Ilib -Iexternals -Iexternals/simplecpp -Iexternals/tinyxml cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp externals/simplecpp/simplecpp.cpp externals/tinyxml/*.cpp
|
|
|
|
mingw
|
|
=====
|
|
The "LDFLAGS=-lshlwapi" is needed when building with mingw
|
|
mingw32-make LDFLAGS=-lshlwapi
|
|
|
|
other compilers/ide
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
1. Create a empty project file / makefile.
|
|
2. Add all cpp files in the cppcheck cli and lib folders to the project file / makefile.
|
|
3. Add all cpp files in the externals folders to the project file / makefile.
|
|
4. Compile.
|
|
|
|
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
