Wine 1.7.28 source code

[Игорь Чебаненко]

Hello,I scanned Wine 1.7.28 source code with cppcheck 1.63. I hope my
scanning will get attention. Threre's lots of false-positives,but,I
think,in my file you will see interesting things.

P.S

Thank you for Wine. It is very interesting,and important open source
project.

thanks for your report, a run of ccpcheck on Wine takes quite a few
hours.

But your report will be ignored like the ton of previous cppcheck
reports for Wine. There are way too many false-positives in the cppcheck
output. Thus the signal to noise ratio is very poor in cppcheck and
basically not worth the effort to look at it; there are better tools out
there.

I've run cppcheck myself a few weeks ago on Wine. But after the 10th
interesting warning/error turned out to be again just a C code misparse
or misguided heuristic I stopped.

So if you found some valid errors/warnings and confirmed those aren't
false-positives then please share them. That will would help us a lot.
