LCLint Release 2.4b
18 April 1998Release 2.4b fixes some simple bugs reported in Release 2.4a was release.
Release 2.4 is a minor upgrads to the last public release, Version 2.3i.
Bug Fixes
All known bugs in Version 2.3i have been fixed. If you discover a bug, please send a bug report to lclint-bug@sds.lcs.mit.edu. Try to include enough information so that the bug may be reproduced.
Integrated Pre-processor
LCLint now incorporates a C pre-processor, based on the GNU pre-processor. This eliminates the need to invoke a C pre-processor in a command shell, the need to pre-pre-process the input to support macro checking, and prevents previous problems with conditional code.
Win32 Version
LCLint 2.4 is available for Win32 (Windows 95 and Windows NT).Parser Extensions
LCLint has been extended to support non-ANSI grammar extensions commonly used in system files. These include unnamed structures and special syntax (such as __asm__). The +gnuextensions flag turns support for language extensions on; this is now set by default.Boolean Type
The bool type is no longer built in to avoid conflicts with code that uses bool. To get the original behavior, use -booltype bool in your .lclintrc file.
