[cfe-dev] Issue count discrepancy in scan-build for Objective-C

[Ted Kremenek]

Hi Jason,

If you use the 'set-xcode-analyzer' script to change which 'clang' is used directly by Xcode for static analysis, do you get the same number of issues within Xcode as you do for scan-build?  Essentially, if you use the clang in checker-258 directly within Xcode, do you get the same results as when using scan-build?  If so, this is a scan-build issue.  If not, this is a potential regression in the analyzer itself.

Cheers,
Ted
