Mnemonic LANG.FUNCS.AP
Categories
AUTOSARC++14 AUTOSARC++14:A18-1-1 C-style arrays shall not be used.
Availability Available for C and C++.
Enabling Checks for this warning class are disabled by default, and require the unnormalized C ASTs for the project. To enable them, add the following WARNING_FILTER rule and RETAIN_UNNORMALIZED_C_AST specification to the project configuration file.
RETAIN_UNNORMALIZED_C_AST = Yes
WARNING_FILTER += allow class="Array Parameter"
Note that retaining the unnormalized ASTs will increase the disk space used to store the project representation, and may make the analysis take longer.

If you prefer to enable this class for C++ code only, add language=c++ to your WARNING_FILTER rule:

WARNING_FILTER += allow class="Array Parameter" language=c++

Example

void one(int x[],    /* 'Array Parameter' warning issued here - array of int */
         int *ap[],  /* 'Array Parameter' warning issued here - array of pointer to int */
         int (*pa)[]                 /* ok: pointer to array of int */
        ) {}
