PCLint is a plugin that makes the user interface more seamless between the PCLint application and the MPLAB X IDE. Although the Plugin is free you have to purchase the third party PCLint application separately.

PC-lint for C/C++ the longest continuously advertised software tool in human history, was first introduced in 1985. It will thoroughly check your C/C++ source code for bugs, glitches, inconsistencies, non-portable constructs, and much more, so you can find and fix your bugs more quickly, and more economically, than with traditional debugging procedures

PC-lint for C/C++ runs only on Microsoft Windows.
