Could cppcheck returnDanglingLifetime with nested function member in class?

[mark zhang]

Hello experts,
Recently I'm trying to use the cppcheck to do some analysis of code, and got following question:
Sample of code:

#include <string>
using namespace std;
class A
{
public:
  static A & getInstance()
  {
    return theInstance;
  }
  string getValue();

private:
  static A theInstance;
};

string getValue();

const char *get()
{
  const char* theAns;
  //theAns=getValue().c_str();/// When use the plain function call could get the expect warning result
  theAns=A::getInstance().getValue().c_str(); /// But not for this one.
  return theAns;
}

int main()
{
cont char * a = get();
printf("a=%s\n", a);
return 1;
}

Could you help check if cppcheck support such scenario?

Thanks,
Mark

Got answer, the latest version 2.14 could warn on this case.
But I used version 2.4.

Thanks,
