I found it after extensive searching. For anyone interested, it is a user.config file which I found in: <driveletter>:\Users\<yourid>\AppData\Local\Microsoft_Corporation\DefaultDomain_Url_<xxxx>\14.0.25420\user.config. Inside there is a <setting and="" <value="" the="" tag="" name="SuppressionsString"> line under it has the comma-separated ids of the msgs you are suppressing.</setting></xxxx></yourid></driveletter>

I've asked this before but have never gotten it answered. When using the Visual Studio Plug-in, I select Tools->CppCheck Settings. A window appears, from there I select "Display All CppCheck Messages" and another window appears labeled CppCheckMessagesList, where I can individualy suppress various warnings/messages by de-selecting the checkbox on the left of each one, and it saves the settings. WHERE is this information/these settings stored? I would like to set up different machines and instances...

We are using the Cppcheck Visual Studio plug-in. I've went thru all the settings and checked/unchecked the boxes on those things we wish cppcheck to check or ignore. We would like to copy these same settings so that everyone else in the group used the same settings. Is there a file or something somewhere that stores these, that we could use to overlay or replace for each person so we would all be checking for the same things?

I really like the way the Visual Studio plug-in has a screen which allows you to easily select exactly which things to look for and ignore.

We had an issue where a non-null terminated variable caused us much grief. After finding and fixing it, I turned to cppcheck to see if it could identify other instances in over 100+ modules. So far it has done a great job - every place it has flagged we have verified that it does so correctly. Since this is vital we will be continuing with 1.87 and NO upgrading unless such a time/version where that functionality is restored. I'm more than willing to accept an occasional false positive to catch many...

Ok, thx for the heads-up. Guess I'll be sticking with version 1.87 for the forseeable future. I also installed the plug-in for Visual Studio, it caught the memcpy as well, so thankfully it wasn't removed from it also.

I also received the following email from a fojtik@users.sourceforge.net: "I attempted to write something to cppcheck discussion and my post waits for moderation. Could you allow my post? I hope that I did not write anything wrong." I know nothing about this, I am not a moderator on this board.

I tested the same code (and used same parameters, both cmd line and GUI) with both 1.86 and 1.87 - both flagged the non-null-terminated variable. Starting with 1.88 (AND 1.89) - it does not. Is there a parameter I need to set for the newer versions, or has this functionality been removed? Also, I earlier posted a question about memset.....?
