It has been over a year since the last check of the LLVM project with PVS-Studio, and in that time, two releases have come out. So, it's a good time to get back and analyze the fresh LLVM...
Code for some Erlang/OTP modules is older than most modern junior developers. These files are the true digital patriarchs. For decades, they have made sure that banking transactions...
The PVS-Studio static analyzer can find errors even in such a high-quality and well-tested project as LLVM. To make sure it's not empty words, we occasionally check the project and post notes...
Let's imagine you have a perfect project. Tasks get done, your compiler compiles, static analyzers analyze, and releases get released. At some point, you decide to open an ancient file that...
C and C++ developers have two bug-related headaches: memory leaks and undefined behavior. As you can guess, I'll talk about undefined behavior—and about "my" compiler. To be more precise, I'll...
LLVM is an open-source project with a pretty large code base. The acme in terms of code quality, considering its size and open-source nature. After all, it's the developers of compiler tools who...
I've been looking for a challenge to put the PVS-Studio analyzer through its paces, and that's why I chose GCC, an open-source compiler collection. It's not the first time we check this...
Compilers are evolving: they issue more and more warnings. Do developers still need to use static code analyzers like PVS-Studio? Yes, because analyzers are evolving too. In this article you'll...
Commercial static analyzers perform deeper and fuller code analysis compared to compilers. Let's see what PVS-Studio found in the source code of the LLVM 13.0.0...
PHP is widely known as an interpreted programming language used mainly for website development. However, few people know that PHP also has a compiler to .NET – PeachPie. But how well is it made...
