This article discusses the challenges of embedded development and how PVS-Studio can help improve the quality of embedded projects through effective analysis.

From the article

Embedded development comes with a wide variety of custom configurations, compilers, and build systems, which can make standard analysis approaches difficult to apply. To address this challenge, PVS-Studio provides a dedicated mechanism designed specifically for such environments. Let's take a closer look at how it works and see how you can use it in real cases.

Embedded development in C and C++ powers an enormous range of devices—from electric kettles and toothbrushes to safety-critical systems such as medical equipment and aircraft control software. In these areas, the quality of software directly affects human safety. As a result, the code must be as reliable, predictable, and resilient to external factors as possible.

The need for thorough code verification in embedded systems…
