Excluded include paths not working #201

Closed dagophil closed 5 years ago

dagophil commented 5 years ago

I added .*gtest.* and .*gmock.* to the excluded include paths. However, if I use #include <gmock/gmock.h> in some .cpp, I get a lot of analysis results for files coming from that include, for example, gmock-matchers.h. I am using the addin 1.3.6 with Visual Studio Professional 2015 version 14.0.25431.01 Update 3.

I think it may be a regex syntax issue. Unfortunately, regular expressions is not my strong suite, and I don't know C# specifics.

Thanks for the quick reply :) After some investigation I come to the conclusion that I probably misunderstood the purpose of the excluded include paths setting. I thought that the setting applies to the path xyz.h from the #include <xyz.h> in my source files. However, it seems that the field applies to the Additional Include Directories of the project settings instead. Is that true? In that case this issue can be closed.

Oh! I keep forgetting about that distinction myself. Yes, you're right. So if you specify Google Test and Mock paths via Additional Include Directories you can exclude it that way, otherwise cppcheck processes the whole source file as it's stored on the disk.

Okay, thanks for the clarification.
