&quot;Traditionally, I will repeat once more, that any static analyzer should be used regularly, not just occasionally. A one-time check, like the one I have described about in the article, can be a good way of showing the abilities of the analyzer, but it won&#x27;t be of real use to the project. The whole point of static analysis is that a lot of errors can be corrected at an early phase of the development. Additionally, it is much easier to keep the analyzer report &quot;clean&quot; and not to look for errors among hundreds of false positives. Here we have a complete analogy with the compiler warnings.&quot;<p>Agreed.
