The _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS define suppresses some Windows-specific compile warnings. Windows has "secure" versions of some functions and compiler outputs warnings that those "secure" versions should be used instead. Since other platforms don't have those functions we just suppress this warning for now on.

About
The original name of this program is "C++check" but it was later changed to "cppcheck".
Compiling
Any C++ compiler should work.
To build the GUI, you need Qt. The command line tool doesn't have any dependencies.
There are multiple compilation choices:
* qmake - cross platform build tool - but only the GUI can be built
* Visual Studio - Windows
* 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.
gnu make
========
make
g++ (for experts)
=================
If you just want to build Cppcheck then you can use this command:
g++ -o cppcheck -Ilib cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp
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
