C/C++ source code analysis tool?

source insight vs ristancase dac

Does anyone know which source code analysis tool is good
for Embedded C/C++?
lint, LintPlus, CC-Rider, or more?
TIA

Hi,

I use PC-Lint (www.gimpel.com) for both embedded and non-embedded C/C++ programming. It is a 'never-leave-home-without' tool.

Hi

I'm using Imagix 4D and Understand for C++ both products are good, I prefer Imagix is a bit more complicate to use than Understand but is excellent.
the URL are:

h**p:\\www.imagix.com

h**p:\\www.scitools.com

"Source insight" and "Understand C++" both are good analysis tool

DAC(Development Assistant for C) is also helpful.

You can try softwares from Parasoft, as CodeWizard, C++ Test and Insure++.

DAC(Development Assistant for C) is also helpful.

The DAC is strong enough? I have no ideas.
I download and got 2 weeks trial license of DAC v4.058
and evaluate it by a simple code such like as:

#define VOID void
#define ROM  code
typedef VOID (ROM *FuncPtr)(VOID);

main()
{
   ((FuncPtr)0x1234)();
}

Unfortunately, DAC said error when 'build database', it could not recognize.
But the code could be successful compiled such like as Keil C51 v5.xx~v7.xx.
Anyway, I sent it to RistanCASE and still waiting their answers....

Rational Rose and some other uml tools can be used to build uml models such as class diagrams from the c++ source code.

Hi...

just for information, the following code :

#define VOID void
#define ROM code
typedef VOID (ROM *FuncPtr)(VOID);

main()
{
((FuncPtr)0x1234)();
}

works fine with source insight (which is for me the best source code editor I've ever seen, from far, far, far away above the others )

bye

easycode is the best tools,But I cann't find the serial still.I thinks the others including sci and si and dac and so on,is next selection.

 

[xworld2008]

I think source insight is very good!

 

[flatsat]

please visit souceforge!
this is a good website for source codes

I use Pc-Lint 8.0 from www.gimpel.com.

And I can tell you that it often saved me hours of debuging by carefully examining its output messages on the "perfect" programs I had written.

best regards

PC-Lint 8.0L is available here:

I like Source Insight too.

Could you tell me how to set up Lint8? The config program looks for stuff in the registry which doesn't exsist. Is there a workround?

 

[C-Man]

btbass,

no need to use the installer, simply unpack the archieve for example into c:\lint

Then use a batchfile like this (for keil C51 compiler):
C:\Lint\LINT-NT.EXE -ic:\lint +v +e9 -t4 co-kc51.lnt -passes(2) xxx.c

for Hi-Tech compiler:
C:\Lint\LINT-NT.EXE -ic:\lint +v +e9 -t4 -d_16F877 co-ht.lnt -passes(2) xxx.c

to lint your source.

Maybe you will be as surprised as I was a few years ago what lint "thinks" about your "perfect" sourcecode

Should you need more help do not hesitate to contact me.

best regards

I downloaded a new config file from their homesite which works ok. Thanks for the info, lint is very good tool.

It is a good idea to check Gimpel's site every now and then to update Lint. Current version is 8.0p.
