static analysis of GTEST_TEST_BOOLEAN_ is not possible #417

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Because the boolean expression is passed to the AssertionResult it is 
impossible for static analysis to understand that the if branch is guaranteed 
to be entered if the expression is true. For clang static analyzer the 
following patch makes it understand the connection and prevents false positives 
in tests.

While it's unfortunate that Clang static analyzer fails to recognize this 
pattern, the proposed patch is a bad solution. It makes Clang analyze some 
"nice" code instead of the code that is actually going to be executed. The real 
solution is in improving Clang's static analyzer - you should file a bug 
against it citing this pattern.
