what's the best way to writing a code analyzer with clang?

Clang Frontend
#1

Thanks. Is clangAnalysis the Clang Static Analyzer ? It’s a library and i check out some header files, but i do not know how to use this library. It seems there’s no document about this library. I want to write a static code analyzer, to get all functions/variables and other more details information from a file. Can you give me some more details about this ?

Hi,

Since nobody replied yet, perhaps these pages can get you started ?

As I mentioned, Anna Zaks gave a talk on the subject of writing
analyses at the 2012 dev meeting. Details can be found here:
