Welcome to the MISRA discussion forum

The example of Directive 4.10 "Precautions shall be taken in order to prevent the contents of a header file being included more than once" says that in order to facilitate checking, the contents of the header should be protected from being included more than once using one of the following two forms:

For Dir 4.8 the document is not clear about whether the following case should be considered as non-compliant.

/* def.h */
struct SomeType
{
/* Object implementation */
}

/* no-use.c */
#include def.h
/* Do something. But no use of SomeType at all. */

The example doesn't involve any pointer but indeed goes against the rationale since the implementation details of SomeType is not needed in no-use.c and it should at least be opaque. Also, logically, "no pointer" implies "a pointer is never dereferenced", since there is no such pointer to begin with.

Please kindly help to advise. Thanks!

Does the following expression comply with Rule 13.2?

(x = a) && (x = b)

What if it is preceded by the following declaration?

int a = 0;

Hi,
will MISRA AC SLSF guideline be updated?
If yes, is there a planned release date?

Thank you in advance,

Why is
#include "c:\headers\measurement_regs.h "
non compliant to rule 20.2 due to \ in the path?

MISRA AC SLSF 022 states that a model information block is required for every subsystem. Does application of this rule include virtual subsystems, or only "true" (i.e., atomic or nonvirtual) subsystems?
Stated differently: Virtual subsystems should share the identity and origin of the parent model, atomic subsystem, or library to which they belong (the rationale for rule 022), so do they need that information reiterated in their own model information block?
I would appreciate knowing what the community consensus is on this topic.

Hello,

I have one question regarding the copyright of the Exemplar Suite. I want to share this with my colleagues in my company, so am i allowed to do that?

Hello,
