PVS-Studio 7.13: Blame Notifier, MISRA

By Andrey Karpov | May 31, 2021 07:11 AM | Tags: sast pvs-studio misra json devsecops devops autosar

The list of diagnostics supported by MISRA and AUTOSAR continues to grow. We've expanded the Blame Notifier utility's capabilities. The analysis of Ninja projects on Windows has been enhanced and now involves the JSON Compilation Database.

PVS-Studio 7.13

by Andrey Karpov

From the article:

• The C++ analyzer provides enhanced support of Ninja projects on Windows using JSON Compilation Database (compile_commands.json).
• The C++ PVS-Studio analyzer spends 10% less time checking source files with the use of the Clang compiler.
• To check C++ and C# Visual Studio PVS-Studio_Cmd.exe projects, you can pass the suppression file directly. Before this, you could add suppressed warnings only at the projects and solution level.

Static Things

by Barbara Geller and Ansel Sermersheim

About the video:

In this video we look at some of the places you can use the static keyword, and what it means in these different locations. Is it valid to put a static variable in a header file? Can you use a static constexpr method as a constant expression? Watch our video and find out some of the unusual side effects of static.

by Casey Carter

From the article:

We are proud to announce completion of our implementation of C++20 Ranges in the Standard Library in the VS2019 v16.10 release under/std:c++latest. We announced the first useful user-visible parts of Ranges in VS 2019 v16.6 in mid 2020, the trickle accelerated into a gushing stream, and the final parts are now in place. This represents a huge body of work with input from multiple open-source contributors over the last two years...

Building LLVM in 90 seconds using Amazon Lambda

by Nelson Elhage

From the article:

Last week, Frederic Cambus wrote about building LLVM quickly on some very large machines, culminating in a 2m37s build on a 160-core ARM machine.

I don’t have a giant ARM behemoth, but I have been working on a tool I call Llama, which lets you offload computational work – including C and C++ builds – onto Amazon Lambda. I decided to see how good it could do at a similar build...

What’s Next: A Roadmap for CLion 2021.2

by Anastasia Kazakova

From the article:

CLion 2021.1 is now released along with the first bug-fix update 2021.1.1 addressing some of the most critical issues which unfortunately squeezed through our testing procedures. We do hope you are enjoying the update now and giving the new data flow analysis, Makefile and dynamic analysis in remote mode, and C/C++ postfix completion a try. We are listening to your feedback carefully and planning the upcoming bug-fix updates accordingly. It’s also time to move forward and see what CLion 2021.2 may look like!
