-options-for-sources

Specify analysis options specific to a source file

Syntax

-options-for-sources filename options

Description

-options-for-sources filename options associates a semicolon-separated list of Polyspace® analysis options with the source file specified by filename..

This option is primarily used when the polyspace-configure command creates an options file for the subsequent Polyspace analysis. The option -options-for-sources associates a group of analysis options such as include folders and macro definitions with specific source files.

However, you can directly enter this option when manually writing options files. This option is useful in situations where you want to associate a group of options with a specific source file without applying it to other files.

In the user interface of the Polyspace desktop products, you can create a Polyspace project from your build command. The project uses the option -options-for-sources to associate specific Polyspace analysis options with specific files. However, when you open the project in the user interface, you cannot see the use of this option. Open the project in a text editor to see this option.

Examples

In this sample options file, the include folder /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/include and the macros __STDC_VERSION__ and __GNUC__ are associated only with the source file file.c and not fileAnother.c.

-options-for-sources file.c;-I /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/include;-D __STDC_VERSION__=201112L;-D __GNUC__=6;
-sources file.c
-sources fileAnother.c
For the options used in this example, see:

Tips

When associating multiple options with a source file, if you use an option separator other than semicolon, use a second option -options-for-sources-delimiter to explicitly specify this separator. For instance, if you use the separator @, specify the additional option:

-options-for-sources-delimiter @
Otherwise, the analysis assumes a semicolon separator.
