gcc-python-plugin is a plugin for GCC 4.6 onwards which embeds the CPython interpreter within GCC, allowing you to write new compiler warnings in Python, generate code visualizations, etc.
It ships with "gcc-with-cpychecker", which implements static analysis passes for GCC aimed at finding bugs in CPython extensions. In particular, it can automatically detect reference-counting errors: http://gcc-python-plugin.readthedocs.org/en/latest/cpychecker.html The major features in this release are: * gcc 4.9 compatibility * a major revamping to the HTML output from gcc-with-cpychecker More detailed information on these and details of the other changes can be seen in the release notes at: http://gcc-python-plugin.readthedocs.org/en/latest/0.13.html Tarball releases are available at: https://fedorahosted.org/releases/g/c/gcc-python-plugin/ Prebuilt-documentation can be seen at: http://gcc-python-plugin.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html The project's homepage is: https://fedorahosted.org/gcc-python-plugin/ The plugin and checker are Free Software, licensed under the GPLv3 or later.
