With help form Ralf Habacker and Jordi Torress we now have Travis build testing and Coverity scan up and running. If you got to the OSG's github page :
https://github.com/openscenegraph/OpenSceneGraph and look down to the README.md you'll see two little bullet icons: [build | passing] [ coverity | passed 5 new defects] You can click on the build icon and it'll take you to the Travis build logs, and click on the Coverity one and it'll take you to our new Coverity analysis page. For the up coming OpenSceneGraph-3.6 stable release I would like to improve the Coverity defect count. I have already made dozens of small fixes to code highlight by Coverity, there is still a long way to go. For this effort I'd appreciate help from the community :-) My personally priority is to squash the High priority ones first, then move on to Midium and then lower priority ones. Also defects picked up in the core libraries like osg, osgUtil, osgDB, osgGA, osgViewer are ones that will benefit the most users. As well as code fixes just reviewing the defect reports and accessing how crucial it is would be helpful. The Coverity web interface allows you to add comments as well as adjust properties/categorization of defects. For this you'll need to either log into via your Github account or create a Coverity account. As work on cleaning up defects progresses I will apply the fixes to master as they come in and then every couple of days merge these changes as a block to the new coverity_scan branch which will then fire off a Coverity scan so we can get an update of how the clean up is progressing. When doing fixes please make sure that you fully understand the code you are modifying and the nature of the defect. It's all too easy to fix a warning/defect report on code that was working fine and then have the new "improved" code introduce a bug that neither produces warning or a Coverity scan. I say this as I have made this mistake myself before, and also spotted such mistakes when merging changes from others. Thanks in advance for you help, Robert. _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
