I develop commercial unmanaged C++ app on Visual Studio 2008, and I want to add a static-code analysis tool.

Any recommendations?

I think it would be real nice if the tool can be integrated into MSVC.

I’m thinking about PC-Lint + Visual Lint

However, I have been taking a hard look at Coverity, Understand, and Klockwork as well.

Price isnt really the issue. I want opinions from people who actually used the tool for unmanaged C++ on MSVC, and they just absolutely loved it.

Lastly, VSTS and Intel Parallel Studio now also offer static code analysis. Nice~

Note: related post suggest Coverity is the best (?) (see last 2 posts)

    I work for RedLizard building Goanna, a C++ static analysis plugin for Visual Studio. Its focus is on desktop use by a programmer. You can run it on individual files, just as you do the compiler, and it can give you results quickly.

    There is a trial available. Right-click a file, select Run Goanna, and the results appear in the Visual Studio warnings list.
