A commercial software static analysis tool produced by Vector Informatik (originally by Gimpel Software) for the C and C++ languages. PC-lint examines C or C++ programs and finds potential problem areas. PC-lint can look across several modules which allows it to determine issues that a compiler normally does not point out. Options also exist for the detection of MISRA rule violations. This tag is for questions regarding the usage of PC-lint/PC lint Plus.
