Question

I would like to use Cppcheck for static code analysis of my C++ code. I learned that I can suppress some kind of warnings with --inline-suppr command.
However, I can’t find what “suppressed_error_id” I should put in the comment:

// cppcheck-suppress "suppressed_error_id"

Answer 1

According to the cppcheck help:

The error id is the id that you want
to suppress. The easiest way to get it
is to use the –xml command line flag.
Copy and paste the id string from the
xml output.

So run cppcheck against some code that contains the error with the --xml flag, and then look in the generated XML file to find its name.
