    I am a Cppcheck developer.

    I assume that the g++ command finish without errors.

    The “cppcheck: error: could not find or open any of the paths given” indicates that the compile was successful. It is an error that cppcheck writes if it doesn’t find any source code to analyse. You must provide the path to your source code. If you provided a path then it seems something is wrong with the given path.

    The segmentation fault seems interesting. Can you reproduce it with the latest Cppcheck? Feel free to report it here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/cppcheck/ with some details about how it can be reproduced.

    The “cppcheck: Command not found” simply means that the shell can’t find cppcheck (it is not located in any path given by the PATH environment variable).

    Best regards,
    Daniel
