Re: Adoption of C subset standards

I don't know about CERT-C, but one of the challenges of implementing
MISRA coding standards checking in gcc is that the MISRA documents are
not free.  They are cheap (about $10, I think), but since they are not
free there are likely to be copyright complications.  I think it would
be difficult for gcc to have a warning that rejects non-zero octal
constants with the message "MISRA Rule 7.1: Octal constants shall not be
used", even though it should be fairly straightforward (and highly
desirable) for gcc to have a warning on the use of non-zero octal constants.

Well, there are the effective-c++ warnings that come from Scott Meyers' (non-zero-cost) books. so it must be possible to do something:

@item -Weffc++ @r{(C++ and Objective-C++ only)}
@opindex Weffc++
@opindex Wno-effc++
Warn about violations of the following style guidelines from Scott Meyers'
@cite{Effective C++} series of books:
