One of the most relevant scenarios for using the PVS-Studio analyzer is its integration into CI systems. Even though a project analysis by PVS-Studio can already be embedded with just a few commands into almost any continuous integration system, we continue to make this process even more convenient. PVS-Studio now supports converting the analyzer output to the TeamCity format-TeamCity Inspections Type. Let’s see how it works.
<\/a> <\/p>\n

About the software used<\/h2>\n

PVS-Studio<\/a> is a static analyzer of C, C++, C#, and Java code designed to facilitate the task of finding and correcting various types of errors. The analyzer can be used on Windows, Linux, and macOS. In this article, we will actively use not only the analyzer itself, but also some utilities from its distribution.<\/p>\n

CLMonitor<\/a> is a monitoring server that performs monitoring of compiler runs. It has to be run immediately before building a project. In monitoring mode, the server will intercept runs of all supported compilers. It is worth noting that this utility can only be used for analyzing C\/C++ projects.<\/p>\n

PlogConverter<\/a> is a utility for converting the analyzer report into different formats.<\/p>\n

About the checked project<\/h2>\n

Let’s try this feature on a practical example by analyzing the OpenRCT2 project. <\/p>\n

OpenRCT2<\/a> is an open implementation of the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 (RCT2) game, expanding it with new features and fixed bugs. The gameplay revolves around the construction and maintenance of an amusement park that houses rides, stores, and facilities. The player has to try to make profit and maintain the good reputation of the park, while keeping the guests happy. OpenRCT2 allows you to play both by following the script and in the sandbox. Scenarios require a player to complete a specific task in a set time, while the sandbox allows a player to build a more flexible park without any restrictions or finances.<\/p>\n

Configuration <\/h2>\n

In order to save time, I will probably skip the installation process and start from the point when the TeamCity server is running on my computer. We need to go to: localhost:{the port specified during installation}(in my case, localhost:9090) and enter the authorization data. After entering we will get:<\/p>\n

Click on Create Project. Next, select Manually<\/i> and fill in the fields.<\/p>\n

After clicking Create<\/i>, we see the window with settings.<\/p>\n

Click Create build configuration.<\/i><\/p>\n

Fill in the fields and click Create<\/i>. We see the window suggesting to select a version control system. Since the sources are already located locally, click Skip<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Finally, we go to the project settings.<\/p>\n

We’ll add the build steps. To do this, click: Build steps -> Add build step<\/i>.<\/p>\n
