# bugprone-assert-side-effect

Finds `assert()` with side effect.

The condition of `assert()` is evaluated only in debug builds so a condition with side effect can cause different behavior in debug / release builds.

## Options

`AssertMacros```

  A comma-separated list of the names of assert macros to be checked.

`CheckFunctionCalls```

  Whether to treat non-const member and non-member functions as they produce side effects. Disabled by default because it can increase the number of false positive warnings.
