Performance of a static code analyzer is a very important parameter. The faster it takes an analyzer to check code, the more often people will use it. We ran another benchmark the other day...
From time to time we tell you news about our internal researches and developments conducted by the developer team of the PVS-Studio static analyzer for C/C++. Today I'm going to tell you about a...
Some of our users run static analysis only occasionally. They find new errors in their code and, feeling glad about this, willingly renew PVS-Studio licenses. I should feel glad too, shouldn't I...
Static analysis tools' users often wonder how to fulfill the task of searching for certain code fragments. For instance, how to find a function longer than 1000 lines; or how to find a...
We have a large list of tasks and wishes we try to stick to while developing PVS-Studio. But occasionally we find some time to spend on unusual experiments that may bring new development ways...
There are different metrics used in programming, including metrics for code equality estimation. One of these is the error density metric. One might think it enables one to find out exactly...
After Visual Studio 2012 was released with a new static analysis unit included in all of the product's editions, a natural question arises: "Is PVS-Studio still relevant as a static analysis tool...
SSD-disk is a useful thing for a programmer, as it allows you to significantly increase the code compilation speed. We have recently decided to find it out exactly and represent in figures how...
The PVS-Studio developers' team has carried out comparison of the own static code analyzer PVS-Studio with the open-source Cppcheck static code analyzer. As a material for comparison, the...
