assertWithSideEffect and function confusion

[Sébastien Gallou]

Hello,

CppCheck warns me (assertWithSideEffect) about this code :
assert(fct());

With fct defined as follow :
int fct() { return 3; }
int fct() const { return 3; }

It seems that CppCheck uses the non-const definition of fct. If I
comment out the non-const definition, the CppCheck warning disappears.

What is the right way to fix this warning ?

Thanks,

not sure what the right fix is.. if you feel that your code should work fine then maybe you could elaborate a bit and we can try to fix the false positive.

I assume that Cppcheck parser is right to "call" the non-const fct() function by default? If the Cppcheck parser picked the wrong function then obviously we should fix that.
