C++ static code checker

Did you ever try parsing C++? What about parsing for every combination of possible define-s at once?
Microsoft has a static code checker tools for C++, like FxCop for .NET.
That’s awfully complex task, you now see. In .NET you can analyze bytecode, and luckily don’t really need to account for conditional compilation. In C++ where everthing is about #ifdef - it’s hell.
I never heared of anything like that. Though Insure++ or AQTime do way more things when profiling runtime, they of course find only things that were on necessary execution paths.
