Hi,
For several years we have used Coverity static analyses tool for finding possible issues in our source code. It has proven quite useful finding problems which we fixed.
The tool works by compiling the source code using their analyses package and uploading it to their website which show the end results. We currently compile the add-on for the Linux 64bit and as such the results could vary per compiled platform.
We have split up all the current binary add-ons so you can easily select only the issues that applicable for your add-on in the defect viewer.
Of course this is only an additional tool to be used but we hope it proves useful. These builds run every couple of days and only compile the revisions that are included in Kodi master branch.
