October 26, 2009, 6:00 pm Webcrawler is soon due, and with that means a code eval. This semester we will be using a new tool CppCheckStyle to help us grade your code. CppCheckStyle is similar to Java's CheckStyle, although it currenlty only checks a small list of items. This tool will not determine your total grade, but will determine a protion of it and you are required to run it on your code without errors.

You can run this tool on your code by running the following command

~cs240ta/bin/CppCheckStyle/CppCheckStyle sourcefile ...

Replaceing 'sourcefile ...' with a space separated list of your .h and .cpp files, or src/*.cpp, etc.

This is a fairly new tool, so please report any issues (crashes, false positives, etc) to Owen at omerkling@gmail.com

If you have already passed off, please run your code through the tool. If you have errors you'd like to fix, you may resubmit your code and passoff without penalty.

October 12, 2009, 6:00 pm There are help sessions each week on

This week we will be discussing webcrawler implementation with a focus on the HTML parsing algorithm.
