Downloading Splint

Source Code

Splint should compile (effortlessly) on any UNIX system with a Standard C compiler. A bit of effort may be required to port Splint to a non-UNIX platform.

Build Instructions

Binaries

Binaries are available for some earlier splint releases, but are not updated. We recommend building from the source code.

Linux x86 Binary

You should be able to install and execute this binary on any standard x86-based Linux system. We built it on a Debian 2.2 system and have tested it on RedHat 8 and RedHat 9.

CVS

The CVS version of Splint often fixes bugs in the stable version and may also contain some additional features. It should compile on any UNIX system with a Standard C compiler. Occasionally, the CVS version will not build correctly on some systems. Usually updating a couple days latter will fix the problem.
Because the version in CVS is the unstable development version, it is not unusual for some of the tests to fail. These messages are usually not a cause for concern. The instructions for obtaining the CVS version are available here.
