[cfe-dev] Passing Arguments to Checker

[Jordy Rose]

As of yet, no. We've talked about it some (most recently off-list) and agreed that it's probably useful, but there's no facility for it yet. Of course, suggestions on how this should work are always welcome; patches are even better.

Meanwhile, if you're looking for a boolean toggle or a choice between a small set of values, you can fake it by having several registration functions that actually register the same checker. See NSErrorChecker for an example of this.

There should probably be a report about this on Bugzilla...
