Is there a C language style (indentation, naming convention) checker, similar to Fxcop in .NET?

I am teaching a beginner's C class, some of the tools like LINT and SPLINT are too daunting for beginners, and almost everyone uses windows/DOS (hard to use some of these tools in windows for beginners). I am hoping there is some freeware or relatively cheap shareware out there. If there is open source, I may also consider making a version that is easy to use - this has to be the last option.

well, i can say YES there are if you are going to migrate to Eclipse IDE, there are dozens of plugins created for Eclipse that supports C/C++ with all what your heart like from style checking to code generation, memory leak busters,...etc





Eclipse is a FREE IDE created by some companies like IBM, SUN, ...etc it is mainly used for Java developing, but there exist plugins for developing in C/C++; i hope you give it a try, all who tried it, liked it!
