When you analyze a project for the first time, you may uncover a lot of issues. But if you run the static analyzer regularly and fix the flaws it uncovers, you should see fewer problems in subsequent analyses. ... Note that if the static analyzer reports no problems, you can't assume that there are none. The tool cannot necessarily detect all the flaws in the source code.
