Hello,
gnu g++ offers something similar to lint/splint for statically checking
C programs with the following command:

g++ -W -Wall -Wshadow -Wwrite-strings -Wold-style-cast
-Woverloaded-virtual -pedantic -Os -fno-exceptions -c

does cl.exe in windows offer something similar?

Thanks.

Click to expand...

cl -Wall -Zs

....would be a good place to start. You'll get more errors/warnings if you
remove -Zs (syntax check only) and let the compiler generate an OBJ file
since many warnings/errors are raised in the compiler back end. You'll
frequently get warnings from an optimized build that you don't get from a
debug build as well.

If you have Visual Studio team system, you can use

cl -analyze

to do extensive static checking on the code.

-cd
