If several VS 2019 SKUs are installed (Enterprise, Professional, Community), the CppDepend extension can be installed in one or several SKUs.

A new beginner menu shown by default offers direct access to each feature.

Queries, rules, quality gates and trend metrics generated via the New menu now contain relevant URLs to the online documentation.

Users can switch back and forth between the beginner menu and the standard menu.

The CppDepend VS extension is now an AsyncPackage loaded on user request after startup.

Visual Studio startup performance is no longer impacted by CppDepend.

Extension loaded after a few seconds of VS inactivity or on user request.

MISRA C++ is a set of software development guidelines for the C++ programming language developed by MISRA (Motor Industry Software Reliability Association).

Aims to facilitate code safety, security, portability, and reliability.

CppDepend 2019 provides 90 MISRA guidelines out of the box.

External plugins Clang-Tidy and Vera++ can take a long time to achieve analysis.

Plugin execution is now asynchronous — results are loaded as soon as analysis is done.

Get CppDepend results quickly while plugins run in the background.

clang-tidy checks against many standards and guidelines which makes it very slow.

Optimize execution by changing command line arguments to check only desired guidelines.

Fine-tune which checks to run for faster, more focused analysis.
