| # The Clang Static Analyzer |
| |
| See the [official clang static analyzer page](http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/) |
| for background. |
| |
| As of early 2017, we have experimental support for the Clang static analysis |
| tool in the Chrome build. Warnings generated by the analysis tool are logged |
| to stderr along with other compiler errors at build time. |
| |
| To enable static analysis for your build, add the following line to your |
| output directory's `args.gn`: |
| |
| ``` |
| use_clang_static_analyzer = true |
| ``` |
| |
| The next time you rebuild, you should see static analysis warnings appear inline |
| with the usual Clang build warnings and errors. |
