I do not have administrative rights on a linux server (openSuse Linux) I am working on right now. So installing anything is not an option or at least an easy option. But I wanted to run cppcheck on my new C++11 source code. Here is what I found to achieve that:

How to detect memory leak in c program using valgrind?
What is memory leak?
Please refer to my previous post for a discussion on What is memory in C a program?
What is virtual function in C++?
Let’s say we have a class called Base and a derived class called Derived which is derived from Base class as below:
Why do we need virtual functions in C++?
Let’s look at the class definition below:
class Base {
public:
void welcome_message() {cout << "Welcome to Base class" << endl;}
};
class Derived : public Base {
public:
void welcome_message() {cout << "Welcome to Derived class" << endl;}
};
Browse Kernel code with Eclipse
This blog will try to demonstrate the steps required to use eclipse for browsing Linux kernel level source code, e.g. Linux kernel tree or device driver codes. If you have already worked with Linux kernel level source code you will know that the Linux kernel is written in C and Linux kernel space device drivers are also written in C. For c/c++ source code the eclipse version I use is called Eclipse-CDT (C/C++ Development Tooling). My development environment is Ubuntu Linux. So most of my references will be based on Ubuntu packages but these steps are pretty much similar in other Linux distros.
