The PVS-Studio code analyzer is the leading tool in the sphere of 64-bit C/C++/C++11 software development. There are three reasons for that:
- In PVS-Studio, we implemented the most powerful search of 64-bit issues in code which occur both when porting 32-bit applications and developing new 64-bit software. It was the separate product Viva64 earlier.
- The code analyzer itself has been a 64-bit application almost since the first version, which enhances the speed of analysis and allows you to use a large amount of memory to analyze complex program structures when needed.
- Static general analysis (also included into PVS-Studio) handles both 32-bit and 64-bit configurations of projects, while the analyzer included into some versions of Visual Studio, for instance, lets you analyze only 32-bit configurations of projects.
All this enables us to call PVS-Studio the best solution for 64-bit software development.
