Anyone have experience with PC-Lint used with Netbeans or MPLAB X IDE?

Question

I've been using PC-Lint with MPLAB for a couple of years now and it has been really useful. MPLAB is about to change to be a netbeans based IDE and I've not found any netbeans plugins for PC-Lint.

Does anyone have experience in PC-Lint integration with netbeans or MPLAB X IDE?

TIA

Microchip have now said they've released a plug-in for PC-Lint, see microchip.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=539884&high=lint – Belding

WARNING WITH PLUG-IN! The lint process works fine on individual files but doesn't lint across files. The plug-in applies lint on a file by file basis i.e. if you have 2 files then lint.exe will be run twice. What it needs to do is to be run once on all of the files. This helps reduce redundancy on a project for things shared between files. – Belding

Answer 1

As @fluffyben said, Microchip announced a plugin release for PC-Lint.

I'll put here how to proceed:

• From within MPLAB X select menu Tools|Plugins

• Select Settings tab

• Click Add button and add the following URL: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/mplab/X_Beta/plugins/updates.xml

• In the "Available Plugins" tab, find PCLint, select it and install.

• Verify if PCLint is installed in the "Installed" tab.

• Close plugins window and select menu Help|Help Contents

• Now go through the help file because usage is different from the MPLAB 8.
