The goal is to be able to understand how the analysis executes, and what its incremental and final findings are, by enabling logging and reading the logs. This should include both framework and analysis-specific information. Ad-hoc printf-debugging doesn't seem sufficient for my understanding, at least. Being able to check in logging, turn it on in a production binary, and quickly find particular analysis steps within complex functions seem important. This can be enabled programmatically through DataflowAnalysisOptions, or via the flag -dataflow-log. (Works in unittests, clang-tidy, standalone tools...) Important missing pieces here: - a logger implementation that produces an interactive report (HTML file) which can be navigated via timeline/code/CFG. (I think the Logger interface is sufficient for this, but need to prototype). - display of the application-specific lattice - more useful display for the built-in environment (e.g. meaningful & consistent names for values, hiding redundant variables in the flow condition, hiding unreachable expressions) Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D144730
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // C Language Family Front-end //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// Welcome to Clang. This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project. Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer. If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant web sites. Here are some pointers: Information on Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/ Building and using Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html Clang Static Analyzer: http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/ Information on the LLVM project: http://llvm.org/ If you have questions or comments about Clang, a great place to discuss them is on the Clang forums: https://discourse.llvm.org/c/clang/ If you find a bug in Clang, please file it in the LLVM bug tracker: http://llvm.org/bugs/
