NAME
infer - static analysis for Java and C/C++/Objective-C/Objective-C++
SYNOPSIS
infer analyze [options]
infer capture [options]
infer compile [options]
infer report [options]
infer reportdiff [options]
infer run [options]
infer --compilation-database[-escaped] file [options]
infer [options] -- compile command
infer [options]
DESCRIPTION
Infer is a static analyzer. Given a collection of source files written
in Java or in languages of the C family, and a command to build them,
infer produces a list of potential issues.
Infer consists of a collection of tools referenced in the SEE ALSO
section of this manual. See their respective manuals for more
information.
When run without a subcommand, and if a compilation command is
specified via the -- option or one of the
--clang-compilation-database[-escaped] options, then infer behaves as
infer-run(1). Otherwise, infer behaves as infer-analyze(1).
OPTIONS
Every infer command accepts the arguments from all the other infer
commands.
Options are read from the .inferconfig file, then from the INFER_ARGS
environment variable, then from the command line. Options in
INFER_ARGS take precedence over options in .inferconfig, and options
passed on the command line take precedence over options in INFER_ARGS.
See the ENVIRONMENT and FILES sections of this manual for more
information.
Options can be specified inside an argument file file by passing @file
as argument. The format is one option per line, and enclosing single '
and double " quotes are ignored.
Options without a default value (e.g., --linter) and options with
list-like values (e.g., --Xbuck) all have a corresponding
--option-reset flag that resets their values to nothing or the empty
list, respectively. For instance, --Xbuck-reset will cancel any
previous --Xbuck option passed to infer.
See the manuals of individual infer commands for details about their
supported options. The following is a list of all the supported
options (see also --help-full for options reserved for internal use).
--annotation-reachability
Activates: the annotation reachability checker. Given a pair of
source and sink annotation, e.g. @PerformanceCritical and
@Expensive, this checker will warn whenever some method annotated
with @PerformanceCritical calls, directly or indirectly, another
method annotated with @Expensive (Conversely:
--no-annotation-reachability) See also infer-analyze(1).
--annotation-reachability-custom-pairs json
Specify custom sources/sink for the annotation reachability
checker Example format: for custom annotations
com.my.annotation.{Source1,Source2,Sink1}
{ "sources" : ["Source1", "Source2"], "sink" : "Sink1" }
See also infer-analyze(1).
--annotation-reachability-cxx json
Specify annotation reachability analyses to be performed on
C/C++/ObjC code. Each entry is a JSON object whose key is the
issue name. "sources" and "sinks" can be specified either by
symbol (including regexps) or path prefix. "sinks" optionally can
specify "overrides" (by symbol or path prefix) that block the
reachability analysis when hit. Example: {
"ISOLATED_REACHING_CONNECT": {
"doc_url":
"http:://example.com/issue/doc/optional_link.html",
"sources": {
"desc": "Code that should not call connect [optional]",
"paths": [ "isolated/" ]
},
"sinks": {
"symbols": [ "connect" ],
"overrides": { "symbol_regexps": [ ".*::Trusted::.*" ] }
}
}
}
This will cause us to create a new ISOLATED_REACHING_CONNECT
issue for every function whose source path starts with "isolated/"
that may reach the function named "connect", ignoring paths that
go through a symbol matching the OCaml regexp ".*::Trusted::.*".
See also infer-analyze(1).
--annotation-reachability-cxx-sources json
Override sources in all cxx annotation reachability specs with the
given sources spec See also infer-analyze(1).
--annotation-reachability-only
Activates: Enable --annotation-reachability and disable all other
checkers (Conversely: --no-annotation-reachability-only)
See also infer-analyze(1).
--append-buck-flavors +string
Additional Buck flavors to append to targets discovered by the
--buck-compilation-database option. See also infer-capture(1).
--no-biabduction
Deactivates: the separation logic based bi-abduction analysis
using the checkers framework (Conversely: --biabduction)
See also infer-analyze(1).
--biabduction-fallback-model-alloc-pattern string
Regex of methods that should be modelled as allocs if definition
is missing See also infer-analyze(1).
--biabduction-fallback-model-free-pattern string
Regex of methods that should be modelled as free if definition is
missing See also infer-analyze(1).
--biabduction-only
Activates: Enable --biabduction and disable all other checkers
(Conversely: --no-biabduction-only) See also infer-analyze(1).
--bo-debug int
Debug level for buffer-overrun checker (0-4) See also infer-analyze(1).
--bo-relational-domain { oct | poly }
Select a relational domain being used in the bufferoverrun checker
(experimental) See also infer-analyze(1).
--bootclasspath string
Specify the Java bootclasspath See also infer-capture(1).
--buck-blacklist +regex
Skip capture of files matched by the specified regular expression
(only the "flavors (C++)" Buck integration is supported, not
Java). See also infer-capture(1) and infer-run(1).
--buck-compilation-database { no-deps | deps }
Buck integration using the compilation database, with or without
dependencies. See also infer-capture(1).
--buck-compilation-database-depth int
Depth of dependencies used by the --buck-compilation-database deps
option. By default, all recursive dependencies are captured.
See also infer-capture(1).
--buck-out dir
Specify the root directory of buck-out See also infer-capture(1).
--buck-targets-blacklist +regex
Skip capture of buck targets matched by the specified regular
expression. See also infer-capture(1) and infer-run(1).
--bufferoverrun
Activates: the buffer overrun analysis (Conversely:
--no-bufferoverrun) See also infer-analyze(1).
--bufferoverrun-only
Activates: Enable --bufferoverrun and disable all other checkers
(Conversely: --no-bufferoverrun-only) See also infer-analyze(1).
--capture-blacklist regex
Skip capture of files matched by the specified OCaml regular
expression (only supported by the javac integration for now).
See also infer-capture(1) and infer-run(1).
--censor-report +string
Specify a filter for issues to be censored by adding a
'censored_reason' field in the json report. Infer will not report
censored issues on the console output and in bugs.txt, but tools
that post-process the json report can take them into account. If
multiple filters are specified, they are applied in the order in
which they are specified. Each filter is applied to each issue
detected, and only issues which are accepted by all filters are
reported. Each filter is of the form:
`<issue_type_regex>:<filename_regex>:<reason_string>`. The first
two components are OCaml Str regular expressions, with an optional
`!` character prefix. If a regex has a `!` prefix, the polarity is
inverted, and the filter becomes a "blacklist" instead of a
"whitelist". Each filter is interpreted as an implication: an
issue matches if it does not match the `issue_type_regex` or if it
does match the `filename_regex`. The filenames that are tested by
the regex are relative to the `--project-root` directory. The
`<reason_string>` is a non-empty string used to explain why the
issue was filtered. See also infer-report(1) and infer-run(1).
--changed-files-index file
Specify the file containing the list of source files from which
reactive analysis should start. Source files should be specified

ENVIRONMENT
Extra arguments may be passed to all infer commands using the
INFER_ARGS environment variable (see the OPTIONS section). INFER_ARGS
is expected to contain a string of ^-separated options. For instance,
calling `INFER_ARGS=--debug^--print-logs infer` is equivalent to
calling `infer --debug --print-logs`.
INFERCONFIG: Tells infer where to find the .inferconfig file. (See the
FILES section)
If INFER_STRICT_MODE is set to "1", then infer commands will exit with
an error code in some cases when otherwise a simple warning would be
emitted on stderr, for instance if a deprecated form of an option is
used.
FILES
.inferconfig can be used to store infer options. Its format is that of
a JSON record, where fields are infer long-form options, without their
leading "--", and values depend on the type of the option:
- for switches options, the value is a JSON boolean (true or false,
without quotes)
- for integers, the value is a JSON integer (without quotes)
- string options have string values
- path options have string values, and are interpreted relative to the
location of the .inferconfig file
- cumulative options are JSON arrays of the appropriate type
Infer will look for an .inferconfig file in the current directory,
then its parent, etc., stopping at the first .inferconfig file found.
Example:
{
"cxx": false,
"infer-blacklist-files-containing": ["@gen","/* no infer */"]
}
