• I reduced the size of my Docker image by 40% – Dockerizing shell scripts

  > Are "Random shell scripts from the internet" categorically worse than "random docker images from the internet"? > With the shell script, you can literally read it in an ... ... https://shellcheck.net. Can't do that if all of the work is hidden in a Dockerfile's RUN statement. I have my team commit shell scripts in shell script files, and the Dockerfile just runs that shell script. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• TermiC: Terminal C, Interactive C/C++ REPL shell created with BASH

  Nice script. It's... uhhh... Not shellcheck-clean. https://shellcheck.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• ChatGPT is a boon for linux noobs (but use with caution)

  Another fairly valuable resource is https://shellcheck.net which I use a bit more often than ChatGPT if I need help scripting. Source: 12 months ago

• I can't run the shell

  Always check your shell scripts at a site like http://shellcheck.net. Source: about 1 year ago

• Need Help with Key Binding

  Once you get the command close to where you want it shellcheck.net is an amazing resource for fixing broken bash things. Paste your command line in and shellcheck will fix any syntax errors. Source: about 1 year ago

• Configuring Cppcheck, Cpplint, and JSON Lint

  I dedicated Sunday morning to going over the documentation of the linters we use in the project. The goal was to understand all options and use them in the best way for our project. Seeing their manuals side by side was nice because even very similar things are solved differently. Cppcheck is the most configurable and best documented; JSON Lint lies at the other end. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Enforcing Memory Safety?

  Using infer, someone else exploited null-dereference checks to introduce simple affine types in C++. Cppcheck also checks for null-dereferences. Unfortunately, that approach means that borrow-counting references have a larger sizeof than non-borrow counting references, so optimizing the count away potentially changes the semantics of a program which introduces a whole new way of writing subtly wrong code.

• Static Code analysis

  For my own projects, I used cppcheck. You can check out that tool to get a feel. Depending on what industry your in, you might need to follow a standard like Misra. Source: about 1 year ago

• How do you not shoot yourself in the foot ?

  Https://cppcheck.sourceforge.io/ (there are many other static analysis tools, I just haven't used them or didn't care for them). Source: about 1 year ago

• Linting tool for prohibiting the use of specific std types

  Sounds like something that could simply be communicated with the team that writes the tests. Unless you have dozens of such classes. In that case, you could just use e.g. Cppcheck and add a rule (regular expression) that searches for usages of the forbidden classes. Source: over 1 year ago
