PVS-Studio 7.36: expanded MISRA support, plugin for Qt Creator 16, user annotations for C# libraries, and much more

  • PVS-Studio C and C++ analyzer now supports selecting the specific version of the MISRA C and MISRA C++ standards. You can configure this setting in the PVS-Studio plugin for Visual Studio. Supported versions include MISRA C 2012, MISRA C 2023, MISRA C++ 2008 and MISRA C++ 2023.
  • PVS-Studio C# analyzer now supports annotating libraries via a JSON based user annotation mechanism. For more details, please consult the documentation.
  • The PVS-Studio plugin is available for Qt Creator 16.x. PVS-Studio no longer supports the plugin for Qt Creator 10.x versions. We aim to maintain backward compatibility by supporting the latest plugin versions for all Qt Creator versions within two years of each release.
  • The PVS-Studio team introduces a new --apply-pvs-configs flag to the cross-platform utility for analyzing C and C++ projects, pvs-studio-analyzer. This flag enables a mode that automatically searches for and applies the .pvsconfig configuration files for analyzed source files in the directory of the source file and its parent directories, up to the project root folder specified by the --project-root flag. For more details, please consult the documentation.

PVS-Studio 7.35: MISRA C 2023 support, plugin for Qt Creator 15, modified file analysis in Visual Studio, and much more

  • The PVS-Studio team has started working on expanding coverage of the MISRA C standard. We plan to cover at least 85% of MISRA C this year and support the latest version of MISRA C 2023. For more details on MISRA standards in PVS-Studio, welcome to the page.
  • The PVS-Studio plugin is now available for Qt Creator versions 15.x. We have also discontinued support for Qt Creator 9.x versions. We aim to maintain backward compatibility by supporting the latest plugin versions for all Qt Creator versions within two years of each release.
  • We have introduced the modified file analysis mode to the plugin for Visual Studio. Now, in the PVS-Studio_Cmd.exe command line utility, you can use a sub-mode within the modified file analysis mode that analyzes both files modified since the previous analysis run and files that still contain warnings from the previous run. More details on this update can be found in the documentation.
  • The C# analyzer has been optimized for analyzing code blocks with a large number of variable identifiers (500 or more). Previously, they could cause slowdowns during analysis.

PVS-Studio 7.34: support for Apple Silicon ARM64, .NET 9, taint analysis in Java analyzer, and more

  • We ported PVS-Studio analyzers to Apple Silicon processors with the ARM64 architecture. Download PVS-Studio on this page.
  • PVS-Studio C# analyzer now supports projects for .NET 9.
  • PVS-Studio Java analyzer now includes a taint analysis mechanism. We created the first diagnostic rule based on this mechanism—it can detect SQL injection vulnerabilities. Next year, the Java team will focus on SAST, covering the OWASP Top 10 list of the most common potential vulnerabilities, and adding more diagnostic rules for taint analysis.
  • The PVS-Studio_Cmd and pvs-studio-dotnet command line utilities have been updated to include a modified file analysis mode that auto-detects source files changed between analysis runs. This mode is an alternative to incremental analysis. You can use it to check Pull Requests. For more details on this mode, please consult the documentation.
