<div>I’d really love to have that in Clang, and I think that is an amazing tool!</div>
<div>However, I’ve tried to launch it and failed — it seemed to look for files which are not there.</div>
<div>I would be happy to review patches for that — but I think the tool would require quite a lot of work.</div>

1. gcc/g++ compilation database to Clang compilation database conversion tool<br>
<br>
One problem is what we want to address is that gcc/g++ compilation commands cannot be forwarded without modification<br>
to the Clang based tools as they were logged or exported by the build system.<br>
<br>
Post-processing of the compilation command is required:<br>
- might contain compilation flags and build targets which are not compatible with Clang (needs to be filtered out)<br>
- the compilation argument filtering needs to be done in every tool which uses the compilation database json (scan-build, scan-build-py, CodeChecker)<br>
- when gcc is used as a cross compiler, hard-coded include paths, flags and compilation target of gcc/g++ are missing from the command line argument list. These needs to be auto-detected and passed to Clang before analysis.<br>
- C/C++ standard versions might be missing from the compilation commands which could change the analysis results (c++11 checker triggers for c++98 code)<br>
<br>
Our idea is to create a separate tool which could transform a gcc/g++ compilation database file into a compile command json file which can be used by Clang based tools without further modification.<br>
The non-compatible flags are filtered out and the necessary cross compilation include paths and compilation flags are added.<br>
Other Clang based tools could also benefit from the converted compilation database json, like clangd.<br>
<br>
2. Plist to HTML report conversion tool (see the source code at<span class="x_m_7805426066755889265Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://github.com/Ericsson/codechecker/tree/master/vendor/plist_to_html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/Ericsson/codechecker/tree/master/vendor/plist_to_html</a>)<br>
<br>
Currently Clang Static Analyzer can produce HTML output but this should not be done necessarily by the analyzer.<br>
Plist reports can contain much more information and are easier to manage and parse by other tools compared to the html reports.<br>
With our HTML generator tool we can generate static HTML reports which look similar to the report visualization in Xcode or<br>
to the report viewer web UI of CodeChecker. You can move on each event through a bug path and arrows are shown for easier understanding.<br>
<br>
Let us know what do you think about these tools, how well would they fit near the available tools.<br>
Your feedback is appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
