XOLINT(1)              DragonFly General Commands Manual             XOLINT(1)

NAME

xolint - detect errors in programs using xo_emit(3)

SYNOPSIS

xolint [-c] [-C <flags>] [-d] [-D] [-I] [-p] [-V] [-X] [files...]

DESCRIPTION

xolint is a tool for reporting common mistakes in format strings in source code that invokes xo_emit(3). It allows these errors to be diagnosed at build time, rather than waiting until runtime. xolint takes one or more C files as arguments, and reports error, warning, or informational messages as needed. -c Invoke 'cpp' against the input file -C <flags> Flags that are passed to 'cpp' -d Enable debug output -D Generate documentation for all xolint messages -I Generate a table of xo_info_t structures. -p Print the offending lines after the error message is displayed -V Do not report errors, but instead print a complete list of all field names, sorted alphabetically. The output can help spot inconsistencies and spelling errors. -X Extract samples from xolint, suitable for internal testing. The output message contains the source filename and line number, the class of the message, the message, and, if -p is given, the line that contains the error: % xolint -t xolint.c xolint.c: 16: error: anchor format should be "%d" 16 xo_emit("{[:/%s}");
