False positive (wrongPrintfScanfArgNum)

[Nebiun]

Hi, this is the problem.

I define a macro like this:

#define NIPQUAD(addr)  \
    ((unsigned char *)&addr)[0], ((unsigned char *)&addr)[1], ((unsigned char *)&addr)[2], ((unsigned char *)&addr)[3]

And then I use the macro in printf:

printf("ip = %u.%u.%u.%u\n", NIPQUAD(ip_rs));

cppcheck show an ERROR like this:
error wrongPrintfScanfArgNum "printf format string requires 4 parameters but only 1 are given"

[CHR]

Is the macro visible at the location of the printf() call?
There is no FP for

#define NIPQUAD(addr)  \
    ((unsigned char *)&addr)[0], ((unsigned char *)&addr)[1], ((unsigned char *)&addr)[2], ((unsigned char *)&addr)[3]
void f(int ip_rs) {
    printf("ip = %u.%u.%u.%u\n", NIPQUAD(ip_rs));
}

Macro is defined in an header file included by source file

strange behaviour: with a simple main and an header file cppcheck (windows) does not show errors. I must check my configuration.

Then:
I confirm the problem with cppcheck version 2.7 on Linux (cppcheck-2.7-1.el7.x86_64) .
Program compiles fine, but cppcheck seem does not resolve the macro.

Solved: is not a cppcheck problem!
Some source directories are not compiled but are present in the source tree. cppcheck scan them and found errors.
Sorry for this false alarm
Thankyou
