    Hi,

    it took me some time to figure out that it was not correct to enter the Defines in the Projects Dialogue as a Space-separated list.
    After i changed it to a semicolon-separated list it worked well and now finds the errors i expect cppcheck to find.
    I haven't found how these defines must be formatted, is it correct with a semicolon?
    It would be nice if there could be a small hint in the Projects Dialogue how to format it.

    Another thing i would often find very helpful is if the GUI could print out the complete cppcheck command-line(s) it starts (LogView would be good). Thus i could maybe see what settings make sense or not, or why something is ignored (for example: i've still not got it how to let cppcheck ignore specific sub-directories, the exclude list doesn't really work for me). And i could just copy&paste&edit them to test them on a console.

    Best Regards
    Sebastian

    Sounds good. please create tickets in our issue tracker so we don't forget this.

    Unfortunately the GUI development is not very active - if you have time please feel free to investigate if you can fix this.
