Updated VS9 solution New VS10 solution that builds cppcheck into a dll used by cli and testrunner. Functional changes and advantages of new solution: - Share code between testrunner and cli; ability to share code with gui as well (not yet implemented) - Files of /lib are no longer compiled twice (should improve build time on single core machines) - Added configuration for building with PCRE support - Executables are build into /bin (/bin/debug in debug mode) folder (Should no longer require rebuild when switching between debug and release) - Completely x64 compatible (contains also x64-debug configuration now) |

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: http://cppcheck.sf.net/manual.pdf
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
