Use this command to install Cppcheck:
winget install --id=Cppcheck.Cppcheck -e Cppcheck is a static analysis tool for C/C++ code. Unlike C/C++ compilers and many other analysis tools it does not detect syntax errors in the code. Cppcheck primarily detects the types of bugs that the compilers normally do not detect. The goal is to detect only real errors in the code (i.e. have zero false positives).
Cppcheck is a static analysis tool for C/C++ code designed to detect bugs that compilers typically do not identify. Its primary focus is on real errors in the code with zero false positives.
Key Features:
- Zero False Positives: Ensures only genuine issues are reported.
- Memory Leak Detection: Identifies potential resource leaks.
- Undefined Variable Usage: Detects variables used without proper initialization.
- Null Pointer Checks: Highlights improper handling of null pointers.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Works seamlessly across different operating systems.
Audience & Benefit: Ideal for developers and teams working on safety-critical or high-quality C/C++ projects. It helps improve code reliability, maintainability, and overall software quality by identifying subtle bugs that are often missed during standard compilation.
Cppcheck can be installed via winget.
