cppcheck-1.64

cppcheck-1.64 has been released.

Value Flow

A new value flow analysis has been added. It is generic so the same analysis can be reused by various checkers - previously many checkers have had their own value flow and control flow analysis. The new value flow analysis performs context sensitive cross-function analysis. All checkers that uses this will automatically have cross-function context sensitive value flow analysis. The new analysis is gradually introduced in the checkers - the old analysis in a checker is kept until it is redundant.

The new value flow analysis is so far used to detect:

  • division by zero
  • null pointer dereference
  • array index out of bounds
  • invalid function argument

Other Improvements

  • Improved configurations for gtk, posix, sdl, std, windows
  • Warn when using negative allocation size
  • Check 2nd parameter for memset
