Hello all, For the last couple of weeks I've been doing Coverity scans and posting them with the results from the other static analysis I do each week [1] I wanted to bring everyone up to speed on the current status and why I'm doing it this way. Quite some time ago now I took over the task of running the Coverity scans but in January last year they stopped working with the version that Coverity shipped and they have not worked since then with any publicly available version. this coincided with our move to C++11 and my investigation led me to believe that the version of Coverity current at teh time lacked support for c++1*. My company does have a subscription however and that gives us access to several versions which are not publicly available. I tested with various versions and found one that works and that is what I'm using to do the scans currently. Unfortunately Coverity's website (dashboard) does not support the uploading of results gathered with any version other than what they ship publicly so we are stuck with the HTML results I generate and host. I will be creating bug reports for the errors seen during scanning with the publicly available version (which is a *later* version than the working version) but how much priority they will be given I have no idea. Previous attempts to contact support have fallen on deaf ears so I'm not overly optimistic but we shall see. It has taken considerable time and effort to get to this point but various individuals have stated the importance of having these results available so it has been, and remains, a priority for me as do the other weekly scans I perform.
