C:\WinCCOA_Proj\_Subs\WinCCOA_QualityChecks\bin\ctrlppcheck\ctrlppcheck SecurityEvents.ctl --winccoa-projectName=DEVharry_320

reports the following:

But only relevant/real issues should be reported, which are:

Suggestions
"Well known" constants like DATA_REL_PATH, PRIO_INFO, ERR_PARAM etc. should be known by the tool by default without the need to provide config options/parameters.
