Visual Lint 6.5.2.295 has been released

Products, the Universe and Everything from Products, the Universe and Everything

This is a recommended maintenance update for Visual Lint 6.5. The following changes are included:
  • Added basic support for Qt Creator projects (.pro/.pro.user files). Note that the implementation does not yet support subprojects or read preprocessor and include folder properties. As such, if the analysis tool you are using requires preprocessor or include folders to be defined (as PC-lint and PC-lint Plus do) for the time being they must be defined manually (e.g. written as -D and -i directives within a PC-lint/PC-lint Plus std.lnt indirect file).
  • The "Analysis Tool" Options page now recognises PC-lint Plus installations containing only a 64 bit executable if the "Use a 64 bit version of PC-lint if available" option is set.
  • When the PC-lint Plus installation folder is selected in the "Analysis Tool" Options page the PC-lint Plus manual (<installation folder>/doc/manual.pdf) is now correctly configured.
  • Added a workaround to the Eclipse plug-in for an issue identified with some Code Composer Studio installations which source plug-in startup and shutdown events in different threads.
  • Fixed a crash which affected some machines when the "Analysis Tool" Options page was activated when PC-lint was the active analysis tool.
  • Fixed a bug which caused the Visual Studio plug-in to be incorrrectly configured in Visual Studio 2017 v15.7.
  • Fixed a bug which could cause the PC-lint/PC-lint Plus environment file to reset to "Defined in std.lnt".
  • Updated the "Example PC-lint/PC-lint Plus project.lnt file" help topic and those relating to supported project types.

ACCU Conference 2018

Products, the Universe and Everything from Products, the Universe and Everything

We had an absolute blast at this year's ACCU Conference, and if you were there we imagine you did too.

For us the highlight had to be the launch of #include <C++>, a new global, inclusive, and diverse community for developers interested in C++.

#include C++ logo

This is an initiative that has been brewing for a while, and we're very happy to be a part of. Above all else #include <C++> is designed to be a safe place for developers irrespective of their background, ethnicity, gender identity or sexuality. The group runs a Discord server which is moderated to ensure that it remains a safe space and which you are welcome to join.


On the technical front, one unexpected highlight of the conference was Benjamin Missel's wonderful short talk on writing a C compiler for a BBC Micro, during which he demonstrated SSHing into a BBC Model B through the serial port!

Most conference sessions were recorded so even if you weren't there you can still watch them.

See you at ACCU 2019!
