Question

i want to be able to write 2 sets of rules:

1. Ruleset which ignores errors like

   • Uninitialized variable
   • variableScope

2. Ruleset which includes ALL , but i can manually ignore one or more rule sets

Keeping in view that :

cppcheck will check for memory leaks.
For classes the checking is only made if “–all” is given. The reason is that there will be false positives if an instance is deallocated automatically.

Answer 1

In Cppcheck terminology.. a rule is a user-defined pattern that Cppcheck should look out for in the code and report about.

1.Ruleset which ignores errors like

Use suppressions. See –suppression-list and –suppress. You can use -i to skip entire files.

2.Ruleset which includes ALL , but i can manually ignore one or more rule sets

Use –enable.
