Qt Creator Cppcheck Integration

Introduction

Plugin integrates some Cppcheck functionality into Qt Creator IDE.

Features

• Automatically check active project after build
• Automatically check active project's files on save
• Manually check any project's file
• Display found error in task pan (with marks in editor)
• Most settings are configurable
• Translation support

Tips

• Checking for unused functions prevents use of several threads and can decrease performance
• Custom launch parameters are passing before plugin's so can take no effect

Downloads

Built plugin can be downloaded from github releases.

Installation

IMPORTANT: plugin's version must match Qt Creator's version (difference in last digit is acceptable)

From source

1. Change paths.pri:

   • set QTCREATOR_SOURCES = path to Qt Creator source dir (with qtcreator.pro)
     • set IDE_BUILD_TREE = path to compiled Qt Creator dir (with bin,lib,libexec,...)

2. Compile plugin.

From binaries

1. Extract/copy files from archive into Qt Creator's dir (archive already contains proper paths).

   • find QtCreator install directory
   • copy lib/qtcreator/plugins/libQtcCppcheck.so to QC_DIR's lib/qtcreator/plugins
   • copy share/qtcreator/translations/QtcCppcheck_ru.qm to QC_DIR's share/qtcreator/translations/

2. Enable plugin in Help->Modules menu.
