The K1 and K2 frontends record different source locations for the
compiler-synthesised primary constructor of a class that declares no primary
constructor in source. K2 uses the class declaration's raw IR offsets, which
include any leading modifier keywords, while K1's raw offsets start at the
`class` keyword and omit the modifiers.
Since K1 (unlike K2) retains the PSI, we recover the modifier-inclusive span
from the enclosing KtClassOrObject so K1 matches the K2-native span.
Example, for `open class C0<V> {}` on line 11 (the `open` modifier is at
column 1, the `class` keyword at column 6):
before (K1): generics.kt:11:6:11:19 | C0 | C0()
after (K1): generics.kt:11:1:11:19 | C0 | C0() (matches K2)
The fix is deliberately narrow and leaves all other constructors untouched:
- explicit primary constructors (`class C1(val t: T)`, `class C2()`) keep
their own parameter-list location, which both frontends already agree on;
- explicit secondary constructors keep their own location (only the
`isPrimary` constructor is adjusted);
- specialised/parameterised copies of a generic constructor
(`typeSubstitution != null`) are excluded, so they do not gain a spurious
source location and appear in source-filtered queries.
Relearned test-kotlin1 (K1) and test-kotlin2 (K2): all 3333 tests pass with
database-consistency checks. Only test-kotlin1 expected files change (K2 output
is unchanged, as K2 already emits these spans natively). No previously matching
row diverges; net K1-vs-K2 divergence decreases on every affected file, with
generics, generic-inner-classes and modifiers now fully identical.

CodeQL
This open source repository contains the standard CodeQL libraries and queries that power GitHub Advanced Security and the other application security products that GitHub makes available to its customers worldwide.
How do I learn CodeQL and run queries?
There is extensive documentation about the CodeQL language, writing CodeQL using the CodeQL extension for Visual Studio Code and using the CodeQL CLI.
Contributing
We welcome contributions to our standard library and standard checks. Do you have an idea for a new check, or how to improve an existing query? Then please go ahead and open a pull request! Before you do, though, please take the time to read our contributing guidelines. You can also consult our style guides to learn how to format your code for consistency and clarity, how to write query metadata, and how to write query help documentation for your query.
For information on contributing to CodeQL documentation, see the "contributing guide" for docs.
License
The code in this repository is licensed under the MIT License by GitHub.
The CodeQL CLI (including the CodeQL engine) is hosted in a different repository and is licensed separately. If you'd like to use the CodeQL CLI to analyze closed-source code, you will need a separate commercial license; please contact us for further help.
Visual Studio Code integration
If you use Visual Studio Code to work in this repository, there are a few integration features to make development easier.
CodeQL for Visual Studio Code
You can install the CodeQL for Visual Studio Code extension to get syntax highlighting, IntelliSense, and code navigation for the QL language, as well as unit test support for testing CodeQL libraries and queries.
Tasks
The .vscode/tasks.json file defines custom tasks specific to working in this repository. To invoke one of these tasks, select the Terminal | Run Task... menu option, and then select the desired task from the dropdown. You can also invoke the Tasks: Run Task command from the command palette.
