These tools allow doing a quick analysis of a project that gets compiled in any possible way. One more point to notice - PVS-Studio for Windows and Linux has special utilities, gathering information about the compiler launches. You can find all the information in the detailed documentation. The topic of integration is too broad to describe it here. Often, it can be a more complicated process, and you will need to integrate PVS-Studio into a build system, even an exotic one. If you use this IDE, then most likely you will just have to go to the menu of PVS-Studio plugin and choose 'Check Current Project'. PVS-Studio can integrate into Visual Studio development environment 2010-2017. PVS-Studio can automatically be launched immediately after the compiler for the files that have been just modified. Ideally, these errors can be detected and fixed before getting into the repository. The analyzer can be run at night on the server and warn about suspicious code fragments. So, let's point out that again - the main idea of static analysis is not to find one hidden bug on the day before the release, but to fix dozens of bugs day by day.

There is no point in wasting 50 hours looking for a bug that could be found with static analysis. The main value of static analysis is in its regular use, so that errors are identified and fixed at the earliest stages.
