zaks.anna added a comment. We gave a talk about building checkers a while back; even though it does not talk about the bug reporter visitors, it might be worth watching if you haven't already seen it.

Looks like you've added more now. For example, why do we need RequestId? Each report will only talk about a single request, is this not the case? Do you absolutely need to store LastUser and VariableName? Note that storing in the state is very expensive; on the other hand, we can afford to perform costly analysis on post-processing of an error report. This is why all other checkers store minimal information in the state, usually just a single enum and determine all the other information during the walk over the error path in BugReporterVisitor. The visitor will visit all nodes that you visited while reporting this bug, so it should have access to all the information you need. http://reviews.llvm.org/D12761 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
