How do I ignore certain file types using cppcheck?

Question

I'm using cppcheck to analyze my C ++ code. I have some .svg / .png files in my source, which makes cppcheck report many errors like this:

fileName1.svg: 2: error: Cppcheck: Invalid character number (() when these macros are defined: ''.

Is there an easy way to make cppcheck ignore certain file types?

Usually cppcheck only checks c and c ++ files.

However, if you tell cppcheck to check the .svg files, it checks them. For example:

cppcheck filename1.svg

or

cppcheck *.*

So, check your command line and make sure you don't give cspcheck.svg filenames.

If you have problems let me see your command line.
