This would ensure that all projects that we can analyze now (on all platforms such as OS X and Windows) will be supported. We agree that certain parts of current scan-build could be improved; however, getting a modular design will allow us to stage that process. Keeping code checker build interposition separate from the current scan-build would cause fragmentation between the users and developers. Is it possible the integrate CodeChecker with scan-build?<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Is it possible to have something like "quick check" mode but with the enhanced HTML viewer? The database is needed for bug tracking, but requiring users to set it up to view bugs does not seem necessary. The easier it is to run/setup the tool for basic usage the more people will use it!<br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""></blockquote></div><br class="">We’d need to integrate the automated tests into lit and add documentation.<br class=""><br class="">Suppression in code should be handled by the compiler/analyzer, hopefully, using a more familiar syntax. (We can discuss this separately later.)<br class=""><br class="">All command line options should be compatible/make sense in the potential future world of whole project analysis. (This might already be the case.)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thank you,</div><div class="">Anna.<br class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Nov 12, 2015, at 3:44 PM, Anna Zaks via cfe-dev <<a href="mailto:cfe-dev@lists.llvm.org" class="">cfe-dev@lists.llvm.org</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;" class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><br class="Apple-interchange-newline">On Nov 11, 2015, at 9:07 AM, Dániel Krupp <<a href="mailto:daniel.krupp@ericsson.com" class="">daniel.krupp@ericsson.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Hi Anna,<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);"><o:p class=""> </o:p></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">First, thanks for looking into this.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">We are open to any suggestions that you feel necessary to get this accepted to LLVM/Clang as a bug-tracking solution…<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);"><o:p class=""> </o:p></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">></span>- What would it take for this to replace scan-build?...<o:p class=""></o:p></b></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">We’ve been mainly targeting (I mean test it on ) Linux, but Mac and Windows support can be easily added too.<o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">Since the whole thing is in python, the only issue here could be the “build interposition”, as you pointed out.

Here are a couple of concerns that immediately jump into mind:<o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class=""><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><o:p class=""> </o:p></div></div><div class=""><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">- What would it take for this to replace scan-build? Can scan-build be used instead of the interposition module you use? For example, can we control the build interposition method by some option and the bug tracking would be an add-on on top of that? I suspect that your solution does not work on all platforms that scan-build currently supports (Mac and Windows come to mind). That is the main concern here. There are also projects that might not build with the type of interposition you use. I am not sure if you are aware of the scan-build rewrite (in Python) effort, where all these issues were raised as well.<o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class=""><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><o:p class=""> </o:p></div></div><div class=""><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">- Is licensing compatible?
