Running security checkers with cov-run-desktop

Coverity Documentation

Version
latest

By default, Desktop Analysis enables the same set of checkers as cov-analyze (minus any that do not support desktop analysis); in particular, it does not enable most security checkers by default. You can enable them with the --webapp-security and --android-security options to the cov-run-desktop command.

Not all security checkers support Desktop Analysis. Unsupported checkers will be disabled and have warnings issued to indicate that the checker requires running in --whole-program mode. See Analyzing your whole program with cov-run-desktop for more information.
