PVS-Studio is a tool for identification of errors and potential vulnerabilities in the source code of the programs written in languages C, C ++, C# and Java. Works in the 64-bit systems at Windows, Linux and macOS and can analyze the code intended for the 32-bit, 64-bit and built-in ARM platforms.
2020: Description of PVS-Studio
According to information for February, 2020 PVS-Studio makes static analysis of the code and generates the report helping the programmer to find and eliminate errors. PVS-Studio executes a broad spectrum of verifications of the code, but is strongest in search of typos and effects of unsuccessful Copy-Paste.
The main value of static analysis consists in its regular use thanks to what many errors can be revealed and eliminated at the earliest stages. There is no sense to spend 50 hours for search of an error which can be found thanks to the analysis of the code.
The analyzer can be started at night on the server and announce suspicious places in the new code. Ideally errors in general can be found and corrected even before hit in a control system of versions. PVS-Studio can automatically be started right after the compiler on just modified files. It works also in Windows, Linux and macOS, emphasized in developer company.
