ConstantComparison sanitisers.
In addition to treating comparisons with literals as sanitisers, we now also treat comparisons with variables that have a single assignment as sanitisers. Proving that such a variable is actually a constant is not easy, but for this use case a simple approximation works fine.
Semmle QL
This open source repository contains the standard QL libraries and queries that power LGTM, and the other products that Semmle makes available to its customers worldwide.
How do I learn QL and run queries?
There is extensive documentation on getting started with writing QL. You can use the interactive query console on LGTM.com or the QL for Eclipse plugin to try out your queries on any open-source project that's currently being analyzed.
Contributing
