TIL, thanks! I don't know that I've ever compiled C++ without that set of flags, I'm a little scared to.

Just in case I wasn't clear, cppcheck is an external static analyser, but it's quite a good one!

Yeah, I never work without -Wall -Wextra -Werror. I ususally throw -Wpedantic in there too, for good measure.

Also, Qt Creator IDE has an amazing static analyzer working out-of-the box.
