The other problem with cppcheck is that it doesn't build on an existing<br>
c++ parser from a compiler (not based on e.g. gcc or clang), so its<br>
signal/noise ratio is lower than e.g. coverity or clang-tidy. <br>

I already concluded that there was little interest in the job, but now I also know why that is. (Also, although Luke had contacted me before his post to the mailing list, I didn't know up front that Luke was going to do so and in what manner. I may or may not agree with what he has stated.)<br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><br></div>

They are working on a clang AST importer. Experimental support has already landed. <br>
