This function is often discouraged by most C++ coding standards in favor of its safer alternatives provided since C++14. Consider using a form of this function that checks the second iterator before potentially overflowing it. return equal; ANALYSIS SUMMARY: Hits = 7 Lines analyzed = 3198 in approximately 0.11 seconds (29990 lines/second) Physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC) = 2214 Hits@level = [0] 0 [1] 2 [2] 5 [3] 0 [4] 0 [5] 0 Hits@level+ = [0+] 7 [1+] 7 [2+] 5 [3+] 0 [4+] 0 [5+] 0 Hits/KSLOC@level+ = [0+] 3.1617 [1+] 3.1617 [2+] 2.25836 [3+] 0 [4+] 0 [5+] 0 Dot directories skipped = 1 (--followdotdir overrides) Minimum risk level = 1 Not every hit is necessarily a security vulnerability.
