Clang Static Analyzer mentions (7)

• Improvements to static analysis in GCC 14

  Clang has a similar tool, the Clang Static Analyzer: https://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Memory Safe or Bust?

  Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment [CI/CD] pipelines play a crucial role in enforcing code quality, especially when working with memory-unsafe languages. By integrating automated dynamic analysis tools like Valgrind or AddressSanitizer, static analysis tools like Clang Static Analyzer or cppcheck, and manual code review processes, developers can identify and mitigate many memory-related... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Static Code analysis

  No one static analyzer catches everything. It's best to run multiple. Popular ones are cppcheck, clang-analyzer, GCC static analyzer in GCC 10+, flawfinder, lizard. Source: about 1 year ago

• Checked C

  With "cross translation units" (CTU) analysis a static analyzer could derive a constraint on `some_function` return value and check this against the array size to detect a possible bug. The Clang static analyzer [1], used through CodeChecker (CC) [2], do support CTU (enabled with `--ctu`). I'm very happy with the result on the code I'm working on. Of course this is not magic, and it's important to understand the... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What's in your tool belt?

  Cppcheck and Clang Analyzer: statically analyze your code to find bad style and bugs (undefined behavior) respectively. Clang Analyzer can actually be frighteningly clever and has a low false positive rate (unlike most other non-commercial static checkers). Source: almost 2 years ago

PVS-Studio mentions (10)

• Let's check the qdEngine game engine, part one: top 10 warnings issued by PVS-Studio

  The analyzer has found various types of errors in the project. So, we'd like to look at them from different angles. That's why I'll publish several articles on different topics. The first one is dedicated to the Best button in the PVS-Studio plugins. - Source: dev.to / 7 days ago

• Bugs that buzzed a lot

  One of the ways to create better and more secure code is to use static analyzers such as PVS-Studio. The tool provides code analysis for the C, C++, C#, and Java programming languages. - Source: dev.to / 22 days ago

• Examining suspicious code fragments in AWS SDK for .NET

  I checked the code with the PVS-Studio analyzer using the plugin for Visual Studio. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• Do developers care about code security?

  I'm working on PVS-Studio. It's a code analysis tool detects both coding errors and security flaws (SAST). So, I'd like to know more about what teams expect from SAST solutions. Source: about 1 year ago

• SAST in Secure SDLC: 3 reasons to integrate it in a DevSecOps pipeline

  And yet SAST is another essential step-up that can help reduce reputational and financial risks. If you are building SSDLC, SAST tools should be a mandatory part of the DevSecOps pipeline. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
