Linticator’s Features

With Linticator, you get immediate feedback on your code so you can promptly fix any problems. Don’t let bugs infest your code!

For example, applying the “Declare function virtual” Quickfix changes the code as follows and removes the now unneeded Lint error message:

Linticator comes with several such Quickfixes.
