Reports
Feature	Description	Command Line	GUI	OnLine
Analysis Report	Describes all of the problems found, including syntax errors, global interface problems, data usage, etc.
Call Tree Report	Shows the "calling" structure of the analyzed code
Cross Reference Report	Shows a symbol table cross reference
Include File Tree	Generates include file trees that show the nesting structure of the include files used by the input code
Prototypes Report	Identifies prototypes for most of the 'C' functions defined in the input files

Test Options
Feature	Description	Command Line	GUI	OnLine
Check full initialization	Reports incomplete initialization of arrays or structures.
FYIs	Generates "informational" messages in addition to warnings and error messages
Global mode	Checks source files as a group of problems
Portability	Checks for general portability issues
Unused locals	Report unused local variables
VERBOSE	Adds extended descriptions to some error messages
Strict prototypes	Adds a section to the main analysis report which lists "unprototyped" function calls; i.e., calls to functions which are not prototyped in code preceding the call
Unused results	Report unused function call results
Unusual constructs	Reports valid but unusual constructs, such as passing structures by value
SIGN	Control signed/unsigned checking
System Library	Check calls to system library routines			-
Target System	Select a target system			-
Warnings	Generates warnings in addition to error messages

Report options
Feature	Description	Command Line	GUI	OnLine
Call Tree	Enable/Disable Call Tree Report
Trim Branches	Merges redundant sub trees in Call Tree Report.
Cross Reference	Enable/Disable Cross Reference Report
Include File Trees	Generates include file trees that show the nesting structure of the "include" files used by the input code.
Make Prototypes	Generates prototypes for the 'C' functions defined in the input files.
Pad Tree	Adds white space to call trees produced. This improves readability.
Source Listing	Adds a source listing to the main analysis report. The source listing shows errors in context.
List Includes	Generates a source listing with "include" file contents.
Statistics	Adds a "statistics" section to the main analysis report. Statistics include function counts, I/O counts, and error summaries.
