DESCRIPTION

Capture the build command or compilation database specified on the command line: infer intercepts calls to the compiler to read source files, translate them into infer's intermediate representation, and store the result of the translation in the results directory.

OPTIONS

--continue

Activates: Continue the capture for the reactive analysis, increasing the changed files/procedures. (If a procedure was changed beforehand, keep the changed marking.) (Conversely: --no-continue)

--debug,-g

Activates: Debug mode (also sets --debug-level 2, --developer-mode, --print-buckets, --print-types, --reports-include-ml-loc, --no-only-cheap-debug, --trace-error, --write-dotty, --write-html) (Conversely: --no-debug | -G)

--debug-level level

Debug level (sets --bo-debug level, --debug-level-analysis level, --debug-level-capture level, --debug-level-linters level):

- 0: only basic debugging enabled
- 1: verbose debugging enabled
- 2: very verbose debugging enabled
--debug-level-analysis
int

Debug level for the analysis. See --debug-level for accepted values.

--debug-level-capture int

Debug level for the capture. See --debug-level for accepted values.

--debug-level-linters int

Debug level for the linters. See --debug-level for accepted values.

--force-delete-results-dir

Activates: Do not refuse to delete the results directory if it doesn't look like an infer results directory. (Conversely: --no-force-delete-results-dir)

--force-integration command

Proceed as if the first argument after -- was command. Possible values: ant, buck, gradle, gradlew, java, javac, cc, clang, gcc, clang++, c++, g++, make, configure, cmake, waf, mvn, mvnw, ndk-build, xcodebuild.

--help

Show this manual

--help-format { auto | groff | pager | plain }

Show this help in the specified format. auto sets the format to plain if the environment variable TERM is "dumb" or undefined, and to pager otherwise.

--help-full

Show this manual with all internal options in the INTERNAL OPTIONS section

--load-average,-l float

Do not start new parallel jobs if the load average is greater than that specified (Buck and make only)

--print-logs

Activates: Also log messages to stdout and stderr (Conversely: --no-print-logs)

--progress-bar-style { auto | plain | multiline }

Style of the progress bar. auto selects multiline if connected to a tty, otherwise plain.

--project-root,-C dir

Specify the root directory of the project

--results-dir,-o dir

Write results and internal files in the specified directory

--skip-analysis-in-path +path_prefix_OCaml_regex

Ignore files whose path matches the given prefix (can be specified multiple times)

--sqlite-cache-size int

SQLite cache size in pages (if positive) or kB (if negative), follows formal of corresponding SQLite PRAGMA.

--sqlite-lock-timeout int

Timeout for SQLite results database operations, in milliseconds.

--sqlite-page-size int

SQLite page size in bytes, must be a power of two between 512 and 65536.

--

Stop argument processing, use remaining arguments as a build command

BUCK OPTIONS

--append-buck-flavors +string

Additional Buck flavors to append to targets discovered by the --buck-compilation-database option.

--buck-blacklist +regex

Skip capture of files matched by the specified regular expression. Only the clang, non-compilation-database

Buck integration is supported, not Java.
--buck-clang

Activates: Buck integration for clang-based targets (C/C++/Objective-C/Objective-C++). (Conversely: --no-buck-clang)

--buck-combined

Activates: Buck integration for clang-based and Java targets. (Conversely: --no-buck-combined)

--buck-compilation-database { no-deps | deps }

Buck integration using the compilation database, with or without dependencies. Only includes clang targets, as per Buck's #compilation-database flavor.

--buck-compilation-database-depth int

Depth of dependencies used by the --buck-compilation-database deps option. By default, all recursive dependencies are captured.

--buck-java

Activates: Buck integration for Java targets. (Conversely: --no-buck-java)

--buck-merge-all-deps

Activates: Find and merge all infer dependencies produced by buck. Use this flag if infer doesn't find any files to analyze after a successful capture. Only valid for --buck-clang. (Conversely: --no-buck-merge-all-deps)

--buck-targets-blacklist +regex

Skip capture of buck targets matched by the specified regular expression. Only valid for --buck-compilation-database.

--Xbuck +string

Pass values as command-line arguments to invocations of ‘buck build‘. Only valid for --buck-clang.

--Xbuck-no-inline +string

Pass values as command-line arguments to invocations of ‘buck build‘, don't inline any args starting with '@'. Only valid for --buck-clang.

--xcode-developer-dir XCODE_DEVELOPER_DIR

Specify the path to Xcode developer directory, to use for Buck clang targets

CLANG LINTERS OPTIONS

--debug-level-linters int

Debug level for the linters. See --debug-level for accepted values.

--no-default-linters

Deactivates: Use the default linters for the analysis. (Conversely: --default-linters)

--linter string

From the linters available, only run this one linter. (Useful together with --linters-developer-mode)

--linters-def-file +file

Specify the file containing linters definition (e.g. 'linters.al')

--linters-def-folder +dir

Specify the folder containing linters files with extension .al

--linters-developer-mode

Activates: Debug mode for developing new linters. (Sets the analyzer to linters; also sets --debug, --debug-level-linters 2, --developer-mode, and unsets --allowed-failures and --default-linters. (Conversely: --no-linters-developer-mode)

--linters-doc-url +string

Specify custom documentation URL for some linter that overrides the default one. Useful if your project has specific ways of fixing a lint error that is not true in general or public info. Format: linter_name:doc_url.

--linters-ignore-clang-failures

Activates: Continue linting files even if some compilation fails. (Conversely: --no-linters-ignore-clang-failures)

--linters-validate-syntax-only

Activates: Validate syntax of AL files, then emit possible errors in JSON format to stdout (Conversely: --no-linters-validate-syntax-only)

CLANG OPTIONS

--clang-biniou-file file

Specify a file containing the AST of the program, in biniou format

--clang-blacklisted-flags +string

--clang-blacklisted-flags-with-arg +string

Clang flags (taking args) to filter out

--clang-compound-literal-init-limit int

--compilation-database +path

File that contain compilation commands (can be specified multiple times)

--compilation-database-escaped +path

File that contain compilation commands where all entries are escaped for the shell, eg coming from Xcode (can be specified multiple times)

--headers

Activates: Analyze code in header files (Conversely: --no-headers)

--skip-translation-headers +path_prefix

Ignore headers whose path matches the given prefix

--Xclang +string

Pass values as command-line arguments to invocations of clang

--xcpretty

Activates: Infer will use xcpretty together with xcodebuild to analyze an iOS app. xcpretty just needs to be in the path, infer command is still just ‘infer -- <xcodebuild command>‘. (Conversely: --no-xcpretty)

JAVA OPTIONS

--bootclasspath string

Specify the Java bootclasspath

--capture-blacklist regex

Skip capture of files matched by the specified OCaml regular expression (only supported by the javac integration for now).
