Gimpel PC-Lint

Gimpel's PC-Lint, and the source code distribution of the same, dubbed FlexeLint are among the most powerful and flexible static code analyzers for C & C++ on the market.  In addition to checking for software defects and unsafe coding practices, PC-Lint can enforce many coding style standards, even indentation and brace structure. There are literally hundreds of rules which can be enabled/disabled either individually or in groups.   Profiles are available which allow the implementation of entire rule-sets, such as those listed in Scott Meyer's Effective C++ or in the MISRA C standard.

As a command line tool, PC-Lint can be integrated with many IDE's as if it was a compiler.  This capability can allow for convenient on-the-fly static checking throughout the coding process.  PC-Lint's rule set be easily tailored to support automated checking of many coding standard rules and style guidelines; allowing code review to focus on logic and design issues.

SafeCode, LLC proudly recommends PC-Lint for static software analysis.  We can negotiate volume license discounts, provide support in customizing profiles, and helping you integrate PC-Lint checking into your software development process.

 
Worth Remembering
"The complexity of software is an essential property, not an accidental one. Hence, descriptions of a software entity that abstract away its complexity often abstracts away its essence." -Frederick P. Brooks, No Silver Bullet, 1987
