Coverity Scan Self-Build - updated March 2012

If you are a new project or you have been migrated to 5.5 your link is:

Downloading and building

Do once:

  1. Download and extract the cov-build tarball

  2. Add the bin directory to your path

Do for each build:

  1. cd to your build directory
    • optional: Run any build steps that you don't want to analyze – i.e. ./configure
  2. cov-build --dir cov-int [BUILD CMD and ARGS]
  3. Create a README file with your name, email, and project's name
  4. tar czvf project.tgz README cov-int
  5. Upload the project.tgz to your server

For your first build, after making the archive file available on a server, send the URL for it to scan-admin@coverity.com. Once we sort out any issues with the archive processing, you will get project name, and password to submit builds automatically whenever you like.
