Static Code Analysis Tools?

Posted by Cliff on from the something-else-for-the-tool-box dept.

rewt66 asks: "We are looking for a good static analysis tool for a fairly large (half a million lines) C/C++ project. What tools do you recommend? What do you recommend avoiding? What experience (good or bad) have you had with such tools?"

    If your project has 500K lines of C/C++, it will almost certainly fail.

      Many sucessful products are made up of around 500K lines of C++.
      That may be, but it doesn't really contradict my comment. The question is: What proportion of 500K+ projects fail?
