Coverity scan

Just out of curiosity, did anything useful come out of the Coverity scan of Mythtv?

I'm not aware of anything significant coming out of the recent scans.
However we have made a number of fixes in the last few releases based
on cppcheck output and we made lots of fixes a few years ago based on
an earlier Coverity scan.

The Coverty scan data isn't public, but the cppcheck report is:
http://code.mythtv.org/cppcheck/

As you can see most of the issues remaining are either false positives
or a code cleanliness issue not unambiguous bugs.

The current Coverty scan is reporting a few more errors, most of which
are in the Live555 library we plan to drop in the 0.27 release.

Hi;

They're listed in the 0.26 release notes:

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Release_Notes_-_0.26#Coverity

(which needs fixing, the last 2 or 3 entries belong under the
build related heading, I'll fix that on the next update.)
