+## 5.5.0
+
+### New Features
+
+* Added a new class `PchFile` representing precompiled header (PCH) files used during project compilation.
+
+### Minor Analysis Improvements
+
+* Added flow summaries for the `Microsoft::WRL::ComPtr` member functions.
+* The new dataflow/taint-tracking library (`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow` and `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.TaintTracking`) now resolves virtual function calls more precisely. This results in fewer false positives when running dataflow/taint-tracking queries on C++ projects.
