| Fact | Coccinelle | ReSharper |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Coccinelle is a program matching and transformation engine that uses SmPL to specify desired matches and transformations in C code. | ReSharper provides coding assistance and code quality tools for .NET development. |
| Security | The official pages opened for this research do not state security certifications, compliance claims, or a security program. | JetBrains says it encrypts data in transit using TLS and at rest using algorithms such as AES-256 where technically feasible. |
| Support | Questions can be sent to the [email protected] mailing list, which is moderated for non-members; contributions are preferred via the list and may also be submitted on GitHub. | JetBrains directs users to the ReSharper Knowledge Base and community forum for questions and technical difficulties. |
Coccinelle suits developers working on C code who need repository-wide transformations or help finding and fixing systems-code bugs. It also offers C++ mode for projects using that language.
It suits .NET developers who want code analysis, editing, navigation, generation, and refactoring tools. Non-commercial users seeking C# support in VS Code or compatible editors can use the free license.
