Cppcheck is probably performing control-flow sensitive analysis, which is completely different than the algorithm that is used by the Clang Static Analyzer, which performs path-sensitive analysis. The meaning of may and must are different. It is very important to understand the fundamentals behind how the analyzer works. Please, watch the video and let me know if you are interested in more information on symbolic execution. When we talk about possible values for a variable(or a symbol) along one path in the static analyzer we can have both may and must: - may be greater than: StGE != nullptr - is greater than: StGE && !StLT The whole point behind "assumeDual" is to allow us to differentiate between them. Your function specifically only cares about the "must" case. It would be a bug if it checked that the state is a "may" state. http://reviews.llvm.org/D13126 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
