Suppress warnings for external headers in VS2017 Code Analysis

Question

I want to use the Code Analysis in Visual Studio 2017 but I\'m using Qt and it gives me a lot of warnings from the headers. I\'ve tried turning off warnings:

Answer 1

If you open your .vcxproj file, down the bottom you should see:

below this you can add:

  
    $(QTDIR)\include;.\GeneratedFiles;$(IncludePath)
    $(QTDIR)\include;.\GeneratedFiles;$(CAExcludePath)
  

Microsoft say there's a bug where CAExcludePath is overwritten by IncludePath but this is fixed in Visual Studio 2017 V15.3 and you'll only need to set CAExcludePath - I haven't verified this (I'll update this once I do).
