Multi-Paradigm Programming with Modern C++ - Enforcing the Guidelines

The video discusses the C core guidelines, which serve as documentation for static code analysis tools. It explains the role of static analyzers like Clang Tidy in enforcing these guidelines and highlights the importance of using tools like the Guidelines Support Library (GSL) for safer coding practices. The video also covers practical aspects of using analyzers, such as handling false positives and integrating them into continuous integration pipelines.

Why is it impractical for a person to memorize all programming rules?

• Because rules are only for beginners

• Because rules are not important

• Because there are too many rules

• Because rules are constantly changing

What is the role of code reviews in programming?

• To enforce guidelines that cannot be programmed into tools

• To replace static code analysis

• To memorize all programming rules

• To automate code writing

Which tool is based on Clang and used for static code analysis?

• CPP checks

• PVS Studio

• Clang Tidy

• Visual Studio

What is a common issue with static code analysis tools?

• They are too fast

• They cannot be integrated into CI pipelines

• They provide false positives

• They are only for beginners

What should you do if you don't have a continuous integration pipeline?

• Set up a CI pipeline first

• Run static analysis manually

• Use only runtime checks

• Ignore static code analysis

What is the purpose of the Guidelines Support Library (GSL)?

• To enforce all programming rules

• To replace static code analysis tools

• To help write safer code

• To provide a large set of functions

Which of the following is a component of GSL?

• Code reviews

• Macros

• Classes like SPAN

• Compiler settings
