PC-lint Plus
PC-lint Plus is a static analysis tool that finds defects in software by analyzing C and C++ source code.
Like a compiler, PC-lint Plus parses your source code files, performs semantic analysis, and builds an abstract syntax tree to represent your program.
Advantages:
- Identify a wide range of defects and vulnerabilities
- Deep analysis to find potential bugs and suspicious code
- Quickly identify root cause and provide actionable fixes
- Support for coding Standards such as MISRA, AUTOSAR, and CERT C
- Certified for ISO 26262, IEC 62304, and IEC 61508

Widely Compatible
PC-lint Plus runs natively on Windows, Linux, and macOS and can analyze source code targeting virtually any platform. By providing support for a wide variety of compilers, C11/C18 and C++17, and the ability to integrate with your existing IDE, build process, or continuous integration system, PC-lint Plus can quickly be incorporated into any project. PC-lint Plus supports plain text, HTML, and XML output which can easily be customized to support virtually any format.
Scalable
Leverage the parallel computation capabilities of modern hardware to quickly analyze large projects. PC-lint Plus scales efficiently to utilize multiple processing cores by using independent threads and minimal shared memory. Developers and testers can perform code analysis on individual workstations or query results from a build server automatically analyzing every code change. Our message suppression system makes it easy to get started by focusing on the most relevant diagnostics. It is flexible enough to support the needs of large projects involving multiple teams, guidelines, and exemptions. Modular configuration files can be organized to provide a standard analysis environment.
Improve Developer Productivity
Detect bugs that can waste countless hours of developer and end user time before they're found. Developers spend a significant portion of their time attempting to identify the source of reported bugs based on surface-level errors that impact the use of the software. PC-lint Plus goes straight to the root cause and identifies specific actionable issues associated with a particular piece of code so that they can be fixed before they cause runtime errors.
Secure, On-site Analysis
PC-lint Plus runs locally on your developer workstations, build servers or continuous integration servers. It does not use an internet connection and will never collect nor submit data, code, statistics, analytics, or any other information from your system over any channel.
A Single License for Every Scenario
With our Team Enterprise License, seamlessly run the tool on automation servers in CI/CT/CD environments, across multiple server computers, in the cloud, or on desktops.
Adaptable Annual Subscription: Should your team size change, our subscription model allows easy adjustments to ensure optimal value.
