System Requirements

This section will help you verify that your system meets the minimum requirements for using C/C++test Standard.

Windows 64-bit

Linux 64-bit

x86 architecture

MIPS architecture

C/C++test requires Java 8 or higher to be installed on your machine.

1 C/C++test  may allocate up to 1GB RAM on 32-bit machines or up to 2GB RAM on 64-bit machines for the Java Virtual Machine process. You can change memory allocation for the JVM process in the [<NSTALL_DIR>/etc/cpptestcli.jvm configuration file (-Xmx option). When running an analysis, C/C++test’s native code analyzers will require additional memory, depending on the test configuration parameters.

IDE Integration

Parasoft C/C++test Standard can analyze locally buildable projects in your IDE . This section describes the requirements to import and work with findings in an IDE. To perform code analysis, ensure that your system meets the minimum system requirements.

Supported IDEs

The Visual Studio Express edition is not supported.

1 Support for this IDE is deprecated and will be removed in future releases.

2 This user guide only covers installation details; see Extension for Visual Studio Code. For information about supported features and usage, see the extension documentation in Visual Studio Code.

DTP Integration

If you connect your C/C++test instance to DTP, ensure that the DTP version you're connecting to supports your C/C++test version. See Parasoft Product Cross-compatibility.
