Hi,

Yes you are correct, it would be a bit too much to analyze all that code in 
such a short amount of time. ;)

I was experimenting with a (in my opinion) great static code analysis tool 
called Coverity and used my favorite VM software for testing it. The tool 
reported many more bugs than these, but most of them are minor or happen only 
in rare cases, when that bug won't make it worse anyway (i.e. out of memory 
states).

However the reports I currently have are only covering about 11% of the whole 
code, which is probably because I have not yet enabled the assembler checker 
(only C/C++ code is checked atm).

Hi TheTwo,

Thank you very much for helping the project,
But how could you, in such a short period of time, find several bugs?

Is this manual code analysis, or some tool ?
