CodeChecker: running the analyzer from the command line
+ +Basic Usage
+ ++Analyze your project with the check command: +
+CodeChecker check -b "cd ~/your-project && make clean && make" -o ~/results ++ + +
+The check command will print an overview of the issues found in your project by the analyzers. +
+ ++Start a CodeChecker web and storage server in another terminal or as a background process. By default it will listen on localhost:8001. +The SQLite database containing the reports will be placed in your workspace directory (~/.codechecker by default), which can be provided via the -w flag. +
+CodeChecker server ++ + +
+Store your analysis reports onto the server to be able to use the Web Viewer. +
+CodeChecker store ~/results -n my-project ++ + +
+To view the results, open the CodeChecker web viewer in your browser at localhost:8001, and you should be greeted with a web application showing you the analysis results. +
+firefox localhost:8001 ++ + +
Detailed Usage
+ ++For extended documentation please refer to the official site of CodeChecker! +

- CodeChecker +
- Preferred on Linux. +
- Out-of-tree, not part of the LLVM project, hosted on github. +
- On Linux there are many projects for embedded devices which are built only with GCC. + CodeChecker converts these GCC invocations to the appropriate Clang invocations, this way the CSA can work on these projects seamlessly. + +
- Cross Translation Unit (CTU) analysis is supported fully on Linux via CodeChecker. + +
- Supports incremental analysis: Results can be stored in a database, subsequent analysis runs can be compared to list the newly added defects. +
