Overview 
Cppcheck is an analysis tool for C/C++ code. Unlike C/C++ compilers and many other analysis tools, it doesn't detect syntax errors. Cppcheck only detects the types of bugs that the compilers normally fail to detect. The goal is no false positives. 
We recommend that you enable as many warnings as possible in your compiler. 
- If you use Visual C++: you should use warning level 4. 
- If you use GCC: take a look at <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Warning options - using GCC</a> 
- If you use Clang: <a href="http://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#options-to-control-error-and-warning-messages" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">take a look at Options to Control Error and Warning Messages</a> 
- If you use another compiler: look in the manual. 
 
Supported platforms: 
- You can check non-standard code that includes various compiler extensions, inline assembly code, etc. 
- Cppcheck is supposed to be compilable by any C++ compiler which handles the latest C++ standard. 
- Cppcheck is supposed to work on any platform that has sufficient cpu and memory. 
 
Accuracy 
Cppcheck is far from finished, it is continuously improved to make it more accurate. 
Cppcheck is rarely wrong about reported errors. But there are many bugs that it doesn't detect. 
You will find more bugs in your software by testing your software carefully, than by using Cppcheck. 
You will find more bugs in your software by instrumenting your software (with for example <a href="http://valgrind.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://valgrind.org/</a>), than by using Cppcheck. 
It is unlikely that you will find all the bugs in your software through testing and instrumenting. Cppcheck can detect some of the bugs that you have missed.

Checks 
Cppcheck has many different kinds of checks. A full list is available. 
To suggest a new checker, please use Trac. 
 
Forum, chat 
IRC channel: 
channel: #cppcheck 
server: irc://irc.freenode.net 
The IRC channel can be access with a web browser: http://webchat.freenode.net 
Forum: http://sourceforge.net/p/cppcheck/discussion/ 
 
Future releases 
 
 Version 1.76 is planned to be released in October. 
 
 Bugs and feature requests 
Use Trac to report any problems: Trac 
''Defects'' are for severe bugs such as: 
- False positives 
- Cppcheck hangs/crashes 
- Fail to compile 
''Enhancements'' are for issues such as: 
- Fail to detect bug 
- Change the output of Cppcheck 
- Suggestion for a new check 
 
Contribute 
You are welcome to contribute. Help is needed. 
- Testing - Pick a project and test it's source with latest version. Write tickets to Trac about issues you find from Cppcheck. If you test open source projects and write bug reports to them, check the issues in Found bugs section, and write links to the bug reports you have created e.g. to our Forum, so we can keep a track about them. 
- Developing - Pick a ticket from Trac, write a test case for it (and write a comment to the ticket that test case has been created). Or pick a test case that fails and try to fix it. Make a patch and submit it to Trac either inline if it is small, or attach it as a file. 
- Marketing - Write articles, reviews or tell your friends about us. The more users we have, the more people we have testing and the better we can become. 
- Design - Invent new good checks and create tickets to Trac about them. 
- Integration - Write a plugin to your favorite IDE or create a package for your distribution or operating system. 
- Technical Writer - Write better documentation for the bugs we find. Currently only a few bugs have any documentation at all.
