Description

For more than three decades, Helix QAC has established itself as a reliable static code analyzer specifically designed for C and C++ programming languages. Renowned for its thoroughness and precision, Helix QAC has become the go-to choice in highly regulated and safety-sensitive sectors that must adhere to strict compliance standards. This often entails ensuring alignment with coding standards like MISRA and AUTOSAR, as well as functional safety regulations such as ISO 26262. The tool boasts TÜV-SÜD certification for functional safety compliance, encompassing standards like IEC 61508, ISO 26262, EN 50128, IEC 60880, and IEC 62304. Furthermore, it holds ISO 9001 | TickIT plus Foundation Level certification, a widely recognized standard that guarantees not only the fulfillment of requirements but their surpassing as well. By allowing users to prioritize coding issues according to risk severity, Helix QAC enables efficient targeting of critical defects through various tools, including filters, suppressions, and baselines, enhancing overall code quality and safety. This commitment to excellence solidifies Helix QAC's reputation as an essential asset in the development process.

Description

Understand serves as an all-encompassing platform for static analysis and code comprehension, enabling software developers to visualize and grasp the intricacies of extensive and complex codebases, regardless of whether they are legacy systems, safety-critical applications, or modern multi-language initiatives. By parsing the source code, it creates a thorough “code dictionary” that catalogs every entity—such as files, classes, functions, and variables—while generating vital cross-references, call trees, dependency graphs, and control-flow diagrams. With its interactive and customizable visual tools, including call graphs, control flow graphs, and UML-style class diagrams, users can delve into the relationships between different code components, identify dependencies among modules, and anticipate the potential impact of changes throughout the project. Furthermore, Understand provides a comprehensive analysis of various metrics at multiple levels—file, class, and function—like cyclomatic complexity, total lines of code, comment-to-code ratios, and coupling/cohesion, which serve as essential indicators of maintainability; these metrics can be easily visualized in treemaps and exported in HTML or CSV formats. This multifaceted approach not only enhances code comprehension but also aids in improving overall software quality and maintainability.
