Troubleshooting C or C++ Analysis
Starting with version 4.21, it is possible to create a reproducer file for C and C++ analysis. A reproducer file contains diagnostic information to help the developers at SonarSource investigate problems that occur during C or C++ analysis.
Note: Starting with version 4.27, a second reproducer file is created with additional debug information.
If you encounter a problem with C or C++ analysis, please contact us in the Sonar Community forum and include the reproducer file(s).
Creating a reproducer file for the Active Document
To create a reproducer:
- open the C or C++ file that is not being analysed correctly
- open Visual Studio's Command Window, found under View > Other Windows > Command Window.
- type in the command window
Analyze.SonarLint.CFamily.CreateReproducer:
You can then view the location of the created reproducer file(s) in the SonarLint Output pane:
Reproducer file in SonarLint 4.21-4.26
Reproducer files in SonarLint 4.27
Notes:
- The reproducer file(s) are regenerated each time the command is invoked. Invoking the command will overwrite the previous reproducer file(s).
- Running the reproducer will only produce the reproducer file(s). It will not report any issues for the active C or C++ file.
