[cfe-dev] Trouble Using scan-build in Windows 7

[Anton Yartsev]

Hi  Jonathan,

To use the scan-build you should get the contents of 
clang\tools\scan-build from Clang sources as Jordan pointed out.
Currently the scan-build script expects the clang executables (clang.exe 
and clang++.exe) to live in ./clang or ./bin/clang directory relative to 
directory with the scan-build stuff but you can use the 
--use-analyzer=[Xcode|path to clang] scan-build option to tell 
scan-build where your clang executables live.
The last thing you should do is to add the path to scan-build to your 
PATH and then you should be able to use scan-build as it described in 
http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/scan-build.html.
Hope I've not missed something.
Feel free to ask and point to problems.
