## 0.3.1
### Minor Analysis Improvements
* `AnalysedExpr::isNullCheck` and `AnalysedExpr::isValidCheck` have been updated to handle variable accesses on the left-hand side of the C++ logical "and", and variable declarations in conditions.
## 0.3.0
### Deprecated APIs
* The `BarrierGuard` class has been deprecated. Such barriers and sanitizers can now instead be created using the new `BarrierGuard` parameterized module.
### Bug Fixes
* `UserType.getADeclarationEntry()` now yields all forward declarations when the user type is a `class`, `struct`, or `union`.
## 0.2.3
### New Features
* An `isBraced` predicate was added to the `Initializer` class which holds when a C++ braced initializer was used in the initialization.
## 0.2.2
### Deprecated APIs
* The `AnalysedString` class in the `StringAnalysis` module has been replaced with `AnalyzedString`, to follow our style guide. The old name still exists as a deprecated alias.
### New Features
* A `getInitialization` predicate was added to the `ConstexprIfStmt`, `IfStmt`, and `SwitchStmt` classes that yields the C++17-style initializer of the `if` or `switch` statement when it exists.
## 0.2.1
## 0.2.0
### Breaking Changes
* The signature of `allowImplicitRead` on `DataFlow::Configuration` and `TaintTracking::Configuration` has changed from `allowImplicitRead(DataFlow::Node node, DataFlow::Content c)` to `allowImplicitRead(DataFlow::Node node, DataFlow::ContentSet c)`.
### Minor Analysis Improvements
* More Windows pool allocation functions are now detected as `AllocationFunction`s.
* The `semmle.code.cpp.commons.Buffer` library has been enhanced to handle array members of classes that do not specify a size.
## 0.1.0
### Breaking Changes
* The recently added flow-state versions of `isBarrierIn`, `isBarrierOut`, `isSanitizerIn`, and `isSanitizerOut` in the data flow and taint tracking libraries have been removed.
### New Features
* A new library `semmle.code.cpp.security.PrivateData` has been added. The new library heuristically detects variables and functions dealing with sensitive private data, such as e-mail addresses and credit card numbers.
### Minor Analysis Improvements
* The `semmle.code.cpp.security.SensitiveExprs` library has been enhanced with some additional rules for detecting credentials.
## 0.0.13
## 0.0.12
### Breaking Changes
* The flow state variants of `isBarrier` and `isAdditionalFlowStep` are no longer exposed in the taint tracking library. The `isSanitizer` and `isAdditionalTaintStep` predicates should be used instead.
### Deprecated APIs
* Many classes/predicates/modules that had upper-case acronyms have been renamed to follow our style-guide.
The old name still exists as a deprecated alias.
### New Features
* The data flow and taint tracking libraries have been extended with versions of `isBarrierIn`, `isBarrierOut`, and `isBarrierGuard`, respectively `isSanitizerIn`, `isSanitizerOut`, and `isSanitizerGuard`, that support flow states.
### Minor Analysis Improvements
* `DefaultOptions::exits` now holds for C11 functions with the `_Noreturn` or `noreturn` specifier.
* `hasImplicitCopyConstructor` and `hasImplicitCopyAssignmentOperator` now correctly handle implicitly-deleted operators in templates.
* All deprecated predicates/classes/modules that have been deprecated for over a year have been deleted.
## 0.0.11
### Minor Analysis Improvements
* Many queries now support structured bindings, as structured bindings are now handled in the IR translation.
## 0.0.10
### New Features
* Added a `isStructuredBinding` predicate to the `Variable` class which holds when the variable is declared as part of a structured binding declaration.
## 0.0.9
## 0.0.8
### Deprecated APIs
* The `codeql/cpp-upgrades` CodeQL pack has been removed. All upgrades scripts have been merged into the `codeql/cpp-all` CodeQL pack.
### Minor Analysis Improvements
* `FormatLiteral::getMaxConvertedLength` now uses range analysis to provide a
more accurate length for integers formatted with `%x`
## 0.0.7
## 0.0.6
## 0.0.5
## 0.0.4
### New Features
* The QL library `semmle.code.cpp.commons.Exclusions` now contains a predicate
`isFromSystemMacroDefinition` for identifying code that originates from a
macro outside the project being analyzed.
