## 12.0.0

### Breaking Changes

* Removed support for using variables as sources and sinks in models-as-data. Users of this feature should convert such sources and sinks to models defined using the QL language.

### Deprecated APIs

* Models-as-data flow summaries now use fully qualified field names (for example, `MyNamespace::MyStruct::myField`) instead of unqualified field names such as `myField`. We recommend updating existing flow summaries to use fully qualified field names. Unqualified field names are still supported, but that support will be removed in a future release.

## 11.0.0

### Breaking Changes

* Removed the deprecated `overrideReturnsNull` predicate from `Options.qll`. Use `CustomOptions.overrideReturnsNull` instead.

* Removed the deprecated `UnknownDefaultLocation` class. Use `UnknownLocation` instead.
* Removed the deprecated `UnknownExprLocation` class. Use `UnknownLocation` instead.
* Removed the deprecated `UnknownStmtLocation` class. Use `UnknownLocation` instead.

* Support for class resolution across link targets has been removed for databases which were created with CodeQL versions before 1.23.0.

## 10.2.0

### Deprecated APIs

* The `UsingAliasTypedefType` class has been deprecated. Use `TypeAliasType` instead.

### New Features

* Added a `getOriginalTemplate` predicate to `TemplateClass`, `TemplateFunction`, `TemplateVariable`, and `AliasTemplateType`, which yields the class member template the template was generated from. The predicates only have results for templates that are members of class template instantiations.
* Added `AliasTemplateType` and `AliasTemplateInstantiationType` classes, representing C++ alias templates and their instantiations.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Added flow source models for `scanf_s` and related functions.
* Added a `Call` column to `LocalFlowSourceFunction::hasLocalFlowSource` and `RemoteFlowSourceFunction::hasRemoteFlowSource`. The old predicates without a `Call` column continue to be supported.

## 10.1.1

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `RemoteFlowSourceFunction` model for `fscanf` (and variants) now implements `hasSocketInput` to reflect that these functions may read from a socket.

## 10.1.0

### New Features

* A new predicate `getSwitchCase` was added to the `SwitchStmt` class, which yields the `n`th `case` statement from a `switch` statement.
* Data flow barriers and barrier guards can now be added using data extensions. For more information see [Customizing library models for C and C++](https://codeql.github.com/docs/codeql-language-guides/customizing-library-models-for-cpp/).

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Added taint flow models for the `Strsafe.h` header from the Windows SDK.

## 10.0.0

### Breaking Changes

### New Features

* Added a subclass `AutoconfConfigureTestFile` of `ConfigurationTestFile` that represents files created by GNU autoconf configure scripts to test the build configuration.

## 9.0.0

### Breaking Changes

* The `SourceModelCsv`, `SinkModelCsv`, and `SummaryModelCsv` classes and the associated CSV parsing infrastructure have been removed from `ExternalFlow.qll`. New models should be added as `.model.yml` files in the `ext/` directory.

### New Features

* Added a subclass `MesonPrivateTestFile` of `ConfigurationTestFile` that represents files created by Meson to test the build configuration.
* Added a class `ConstructorDirectFieldInit` to represent field initializations that occur in member initializer lists.
* Added a class `ConstructorDefaultFieldInit` to represent default field initializations.

* Added dataflow through members initialized via non-static data member initialization (NSDMI).

## 8.0.3

No user-facing changes.

## 8.0.2

No user-facing changes.

## 8.0.1

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Inline expectations test comments, which are of the form `// $ tag` or `// $ tag=value`, are now parsed more strictly and will not be recognized if there isn't a space after the `$` symbol.

## 8.0.0

### Breaking Changes

* CodeQL version 2.24.2 accidentally introduced a syntactical breaking change to `BarrierGuard<...>::getAnIndirectBarrierNode` and `InstructionBarrierGuard<...>::getAnIndirectBarrierNode`. These breaking changes have now been reverted so that the original code compiles again.
* `MustFlow`, the inter-procedural must-flow data flow analysis library, has been re-worked to use parameterized modules. Like in the case of data flow and taint tracking, instead of extending the `MustFlowConfiguration` class, the user should now implement a module with the `MustFlow::ConfigSig` signature, and instantiate the `MustFlow::Global` parameterized module with the implemented module.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Refactored the "Year field changed using an arithmetic operation without checking for leap year" query (`cpp/leap-year/unchecked-after-arithmetic-year-modification`) to address large numbers of false positive results.

### Bug Fixes

* The `allowInterproceduralFlow` predicate of must-flow data flow configurations now correctly handles direct recursion.

## 7.1.1

### Minor Analysis Improvements

### New Features

* Added a subclass `Embed` of `PreprocessorDirective` for C23 and C++26 `#embed` preprocessor directives.
* Added modules `DataFlow::ParameterizedBarrierGuard` and `DataFlow::ParameterizedInstructionBarrierGuard`. These modules provide the same features as `DataFlow::BarrierGuard` and `DataFlow::InstructionBarrierGuard`, but allow for an additional parameter to support properly using them in dataflow configurations that uses flow states.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `Buffer.qll` library will no longer report incorrect buffer sizes on certain malformed databases. As a result, the queries `cpp/static-buffer-overflow`, `cpp/overflow-buffer`, `cpp/badly-bounded-write`, `cpp/overrunning-write`, `cpp/overrunning-write-with-float`, and `cpp/very-likely-overrunning-write` will report fewer false positives on such databases.
* Added `taint` summary models and `sql-injection` barrier models for the MySQL `mysql_real_escape_string` and `mysql_real_escape_string_quote` escaping functions.
* The predicate `SummarizedCallable.propagatesFlow` has been extended with the columns `Provenance p` and `boolean isExact`, and as a consequence the predicates `SummarizedCallable.hasProvenance` and `SummarizedCallable.hasExactModel` have been removed.

### Bug Fixes

* Fixed a bug in the `GuardCondition` library which sometimes prevented binary logical operators from being recognized as guard conditions. As a result, queries using `GuardCondition` may see improved results.
* Fixed a bug which caused `Node.asDefinition()` to not have a result for certain assignments.

## 7.0.0

### Breaking Changes

* The `_Decimal32`, `_Decimal64`, and `_Decimal128` types are no longer exposed as builtin types. Support for these gcc-specific types was incomplete, and are generally not used in C/C++ codebases.

### Deprecated APIs

* The `OverloadedArrayExpr::getArrayOffset/0` predicate has been deprecated. Use `OverloadedArrayExpr::getArrayOffset/1` and `OverloadedArrayExpr::getAnArrayOffset` instead.

### New Features

* Added subclasses of `BuiltInOperations` for the `__is_bitwise_cloneable`, `__is_invocable`, and `__is_nothrow_invocable` builtin operations.
* Added a `isThisAccess` predicate to `ParamAccessForType` that holds when the access is to the implicit object parameter.
* Predicates `getArrayOffset/1` and `getAnArrayOffset` have been added to the `OverloadedArrayExpr` class to support C++23 multidimensional subscript operators.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Some constants will now be represented by their unfolded expression trees. The `isConstant` predicate of `Expr` will no longer yield a result for those constants.

### Bug Fixes

* Fixed a bug in the `DataFlow::BarrierGuard<...>::getABarrierNode` predicate which caused the predicate to return `DataFlow::Node`s with incorrect indirections. If you use `getABarrierNode` to implement barriers in a dataflow/taint-tracking query it may result in more query results. You can use `DataFlow::BarrierGuard<...>::getAnIndirectBarrierNode` to remove those query results.

## 6.1.4

No user-facing changes.

## 6.1.3

No user-facing changes.

## 6.1.2

No user-facing changes.

## 6.1.1

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The class `DataFlow::FieldContent` now covers both `union` and `struct`/`class` types. A new predicate `FieldContent.getAField` has been added to access the union members associated with the `FieldContent`. The old `FieldContent` has been renamed to `NonUnionFieldContent`.

## 6.1.0

### New Features

* New predicates `getAnExpandedArgument` and `getExpandedArgument` were added to the `Compilation` class, yielding compilation arguments after expansion of response files.

### Bug Fixes

* Improve performance of the range analysis in cases where it would otherwise take an exorbitant amount of time.

## 6.0.1

No user-facing changes.

## 6.0.0

### Breaking Changes

* The "Guards" libraries (`semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.Guards` and `semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.IRGuards`) have been totally rewritten to recognize many more guards. The API remains unchanged, but the `GuardCondition` class now extends `Element` instead of `Expr`.

### New Features

## 5.6.1

No user-facing changes.

## 5.6.0

### Deprecated APIs

### 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.

## 5.4.1

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The guards libraries (`semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.Guards` and `semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.IRGuards`) have been improved to recognize more guards.
* Improved dataflow through global variables in the new dataflow library (`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow` and `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.TaintTracking`). Queries based on these libraries will produce more results on codebases with many global variables.
* The global value numbering library (`semmle.code.cpp.valuenumbering.GlobalValueNumbering` and `semmle.code.cpp.ir.ValueNumbering`) has been improved so more expressions are assigned the same value number.

## 5.4.0

### New Features

* Exposed various SSA-related classes (`Definition`, `PhiNode`, `ExplicitDefinition`, `DirectExplicitDefinition`, and `IndirectExplicitDefinition`) which were previously only usable inside the internal dataflow directory.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `cpp/overrun-write` query now recognizes more bound checks and thus produces fewer false positives.

## 5.3.0

### Deprecated APIs

* The `UnknownDefaultLocation`, `UnknownExprLocation`, and `UnknownStmtLocation` classes have been deprecated. Use `UnknownLocation` instead.

### New Features

* Added a `isFinalValueOfParameter` predicate to `DataFlow::Node` which holds when a dataflow node represents the final value of an output parameter of a function.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `FunctionWithWrappers` library (`semmle.code.cpp.security.FunctionWithWrappers`) no longer considers calls through function pointers as wrapper functions.
* The analysis of C/C++ code targeting 64-bit Arm platforms has been improved. This includes support for the Arm-specific builtin functions, support for the `arm_neon.h` header and Neon vector types, and support for the `fp8` scalar type. The `arm_sve.h` header and scalable vectors are only partially supported at this point.
* Added support for `__fp16 _Complex` and `__bf16 _Complex` types
* Added `sql-injection` sink models for the Oracle Call Interface (OCI) database library functions `OCIStmtPrepare` and `OCIStmtPrepare2`.

The `TypeofExprType` class represents the variant taking an expression as its argument. The `TypeofTypeType` class represents the variant taking a type as its argument.
* A new class `IntrinsicTransformedType` was introduced, which represents the type transforming intrinsics supported by clang, gcc, and MSVC.
* Introduced `hasDesignator()` predicates to distinguish between designated and positional initializations for both struct/union fields and array elements.

### New Features

* Calling conventions explicitly specified on function declarations (`__cdecl`, `__stdcall`, `__fastcall`, etc.)  are now represented as specifiers of those declarations.
* A new class `CallingConventionSpecifier` extending the `Specifier` class was introduced, which represents explicitly specified calling conventions.

* Fixed an issue where the `getBufferSize` predicate in `commons/Buffer.qll` was returning results for references inside `offsetof` expressions, which are not accesses to a buffer.

## 4.0.1

No user-facing changes.

## 4.0.0

### Breaking Changes

* Improved performance of alias analysis of large function bodies. In rare cases, alerts that depend on alias analysis of large function bodies may be affected.
* A `UsingEnumDeclarationEntry` class has been added for C++ `using enum` declarations. As part of this, synthesized `UsingDeclarationEntry`s are no longer emitted for individual enumerators of the referenced enumeration.

## 1.3.0

### New Features

* Models-as-data alert provenance information has been extended to the C/C++ language. Any qltests that include the edges relation in their output (for example, `.qlref`s that reference path-problem queries) will need to be have their expected output updated accordingly.
* Added subclasses of `BuiltInOperations` for `__builtin_has_attribute`, `__builtin_is_corresponding_member`, `__builtin_is_pointer_interconvertible_with_class`, `__is_assignable_no_precondition_check`, `__is_bounded_array`, `__is_convertible`, `__is_corresponding_member`, `__is_nothrow_convertible`, `__is_pointer_interconvertible_with_class`, `__is_referenceable`, `__is_same_as`, `__is_trivially_copy_assignable`, `__is_unbounded_array`, `__is_valid_winrt_type`, `_is_win_class`, `__is_win_interface`, `__reference_binds_to_temporary`, `__reference_constructs_from_temporary`, and `__reference_converts_from_temporary`.

## 1.2.0

### New Features

* The syntax for models-as-data rows has been extended to make it easier to select sources, sinks, and summaries that involve templated functions and classes. Additionally, the syntax has also been extended to make it easier to specify models with arbitrary levels of indirection. See `dataflow/ExternalFlow.qll` for the updated documentation and specification for the model format.
* It is now possible to extend the classes `AllocationFunction` and `DeallocationFunction` via data extensions. Extensions of these classes should be added to the `lib/ext/allocation` and `lib/ext/deallocation` directories respectively.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The queries "Potential double free" (`cpp/double-free`) and "Potential use after free" (`cpp/use-after-free`) now produce fewer false positives.
* The "Guards" library (`semmle.code.cpp.controlflow.Guards`) now also infers guards from calls to the builtin operation `__builtin_expect`. As a result, some queries may produce fewer false positives.

## 1.1.1

No user-facing changes.

## 1.1.0

### New Features

See `dataflow/ExternalFlow.qll` for documentation and specification of the model format, and `models/implementations/ZMQ.qll` for a simple example of models. Importing models from `.yml` is not yet supported.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Source, sink and flow models for the ZeroMQ (ZMQ) networking library have been added.
* Parameters of functions without definitions now have `ParameterNode`s.

* Added a predicate `GuardCondition.valueControls` to query whether a basic block is guarded by a particular `case` of a `switch` statement.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Added destructors for temporary objects with extended lifetimes to the intermediate representation.

## 0.12.9

No user-facing changes.

## 0.12.8

No user-facing changes.

## 0.12.7

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Added destructors for named objects to the intermediate representation.

## 0.12.6

### New Features

* A `getInitialization` predicate was added to the `RangeBasedForStmt` class that yields the C++20-style initializer of the range-based `for` statement when it exists.

## 0.12.5

### New Features

* Added the `PreprocBlock.qll` library to this repository.  This library offers a view of `#if`, `#elif`, `#else` and similar directives as a tree with navigable parent-child relationships.
* Added a new `ThrowingFunction` abstract class that can be used to model an external function that may throw an exception.

## 0.12.4

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Deleted many deprecated predicates and classes with uppercase `XML`, `SSA`, `SAL`, `SQL`, etc. in their names. Use the PascalCased versions instead.
* Deleted the deprecated `StrcatFunction` class, use `semmle.code.cpp.models.implementations.Strcat.qll` instead.

## 0.12.3

### Deprecated APIs

* The `isUserInput`, `userInputArgument`, and `userInputReturned` predicates from `SecurityOptions` have been deprecated. Use `FlowSource` instead.

### New Features

* `UserDefineLiteral` and `DeductionGuide` classes have been added, representing C++11 user defined literals and C++17 deduction guides.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Changed the output of `Node.toString` to better reflect how many indirections a given dataflow node has.
* Added a new predicate `Node.asDefinition` on `DataFlow::Node`s for selecting the dataflow node corresponding to a particular definition.
* The deprecated `DefaultTaintTracking` library has been removed.
* The `Guards` library has been replaced with the API-compatible `IRGuards` implementation, which has better precision in some cases.

### Bug Fixes

* Under certain circumstances a function declaration that is not also a definition could be associated with a `Function` that did not have the definition as a `FunctionDeclarationEntry`. This is now fixed when only one definition exists, and a unique `Function` will exist that has both the declaration and the definition as a `FunctionDeclarationEntry`.

## 0.12.2

No user-facing changes.

## 0.12.1

### New Features

* Added an `isPrototyped` predicate to `Function` that holds when the function has a prototype.

## 0.12.0

### Breaking Changes

* The expressions `AssignPointerAddExpr` and `AssignPointerSubExpr` are no longer subtypes of `AssignBitwiseOperation`.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The "Returning stack-allocated memory" (`cpp/return-stack-allocated-memory`) query now also detects returning stack-allocated memory allocated by calls to `alloca`, `strdupa`, and `strndupa`.
* Added models for `strlcpy` and `strlcat`.
* Added models for the `sprintf` variants from the `StrSafe.h` header.
* Added SQL API models for `ODBC`.
* Added taint models for `realloc` and related functions.

## 0.11.0

### Breaking Changes

* The `Container` and `Folder` classes now derive from `ElementBase` instead of `Locatable`, and no longer expose the `getLocation` predicate. Use `getURL` instead.

### New Features

* Added a new class `AdditionalCallTarget` for specifying additional call targets.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* More field accesses are identified as `ImplicitThisFieldAccess`.
* Added support for new floating-point types in C23 and C++23.

## 0.10.1

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Deleted the deprecated `AnalysedString` class, use the new name `AnalyzedString`.
* Deleted the deprecated `isBarrierGuard` predicate from the dataflow library and its uses, use `isBarrier` and the `BarrierGuard` module instead.

## 0.10.0

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Functions that do not return due to calling functions that don't return (e.g. `exit`) are now detected as
 non-returning in the IR and dataflow.
* Treat functions that reach the end of the function as returning in the IR.
  They used to be treated as unreachable but it is allowed in C. 
* The `DataFlow::asDefiningArgument` predicate now takes its argument from the range starting at `1` instead of `2`. Queries that depend on the single-parameter version of `DataFlow::asDefiningArgument` should have their arguments updated accordingly.

## 0.9.3

No user-facing changes.

## 0.9.2

### Deprecated APIs

* `getAllocatorCall` on `DeleteExpr` and `DeleteArrayExpr` has been deprecated. `getDeallocatorCall` should be used instead.

### New Features

* Added `DeleteOrDeleteArrayExpr` as a super type of `DeleteExpr` and `DeleteArrayExpr`

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* `delete` and `delete[]` are now modeled as calls to the relevant `operator delete` in the IR. In the case of a dynamic delete call a new instruction `VirtualDeleteFunctionAddress` is used to represent a function that dispatches to the correct delete implementation.
* Only the 2 level indirection of `argv` (corresponding to `**argv`) is consided for `FlowSource`.

## 0.9.1

No user-facing changes.

## 0.9.0

### Breaking Changes

* The `shouldPrintFunction` predicate from `PrintAstConfiguration` has been replaced by `shouldPrintDeclaration`. Users should now override `shouldPrintDeclaration` if they want to limit the declarations that should be printed.
* The `shouldPrintFunction` predicate from `PrintIRConfiguration` has been replaced by `shouldPrintDeclaration`. Users should now override `shouldPrintDeclaration` if they want to limit the declarations that should be printed.

### Major Analysis Improvements

* The `PrintAST` library now also prints global and namespace variables and their initializers.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `_Float128x` type is no longer exposed as a builtin type. As this type could not occur any code base, this should only affect queries that explicitly looked at the builtin types.

## 0.8.1

### Deprecated APIs

* The library `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.DataFlow` has been deprecated. Please use `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow` instead.

### New Features

* The `DataFlow::StateConfigSig` signature module has gained default implementations for `isBarrier/2` and `isAdditionalFlowStep/4`. 
  Hence it is no longer needed to provide `none()` implementations of these predicates if they are not needed.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Data flow configurations can now include a predicate `neverSkip(Node node)`
  in order to ensure inclusion of certain nodes in the path explanations. The
  predicate defaults to the end-points of the additional flow steps provided in
  the configuration, which means that such steps now always are visible by
  default in path explanations.
* The `IRGuards` library has improved handling of pointer addition and subtraction operations.

## 0.8.0

### New Features

* The `ProductFlow::StateConfigSig` signature now includes default predicates for `isBarrier1`, `isBarrier2`, `isAdditionalFlowStep1`, and `isAdditionalFlowStep1`. Hence, it is no longer needed to provide `none()` implementations of these predicates if they are not needed.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Deleted the deprecated `getURL` predicate from the `Container`, `Folder`, and `File` classes. Use the `getLocation` predicate instead.

## 0.7.4

No user-facing changes.

## 0.7.3

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Deleted the deprecated `hasCopyConstructor` predicate from the `Class` class in `Class.qll`.
* Deleted many deprecated predicates and classes with uppercase `AST`, `SSA`, `CFG`, `API`, etc. in their names. Use the PascalCased versions instead.
* Deleted the deprecated `CodeDuplication.qll` file.

## 0.7.2

### New Features

* Added an AST-based interface (`semmle.code.cpp.rangeanalysis.new.RangeAnalysis`) for the relative range analysis library.
* A new predicate `BarrierGuard::getAnIndirectBarrierNode` has been added to the new dataflow library (`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow`) to mark indirect expressions as barrier nodes using the `BarrierGuard` API.

### Major Analysis Improvements

* In the intermediate representation, handling of control flow after non-returning calls has been improved. This should remove false positives in queries that use the intermedite representation or libraries based on it, including the new data flow library.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `StdNamespace` class now also includes all inline namespaces that are children of `std` namespace.
* The new dataflow (`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow`) and taint-tracking libraries (`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.TaintTracking`) now support tracking flow through static local variables.

## 0.7.1

No user-facing changes.

## 0.7.0

### Breaking Changes

* The internal `SsaConsistency` module has been moved from `SSAConstruction` to `SSAConsitency`, and the deprecated `SSAConsistency` module has been removed.

### Deprecated APIs

* The single-parameter predicates `ArrayOrVectorAggregateLiteral.getElementExpr` and `ClassAggregateLiteral.getFieldExpr` have been deprecated in favor of `ArrayOrVectorAggregateLiteral.getAnElementExpr` and `ClassAggregateLiteral.getAFieldExpr`.
* The recently introduced new data flow and taint tracking APIs have had a
  number of module and predicate renamings. The old APIs remain in place for
  now.
* The `SslContextCallAbstractConfig`, `SslContextCallConfig`, `SslContextCallBannedProtocolConfig`, `SslContextCallTls12ProtocolConfig`, `SslContextCallTls13ProtocolConfig`, `SslContextCallTlsProtocolConfig`, `SslContextFlowsToSetOptionConfig`, `SslOptionConfig` dataflow configurations from `BoostorgAsio` have been deprecated. Please use `SslContextCallConfigSig`, `SslContextCallGlobal`, `SslContextCallFlow`, `SslContextCallBannedProtocolFlow`, `SslContextCallTls12ProtocolFlow`, `SslContextCallTls13ProtocolFlow`, `SslContextCallTlsProtocolFlow`, `SslContextFlowsToSetOptionFlow`.

### New Features

* Added overridable predicates `getSizeExpr` and `getSizeMult` to the `BufferAccess` class (`semmle.code.cpp.security.BufferAccess.qll`). This makes it possible to model a larger class of buffer reads and writes using the library.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `BufferAccess` library (`semmle.code.cpp.security.BufferAccess`) no longer matches buffer accesses inside unevaluated contexts (such as inside `sizeof` or `decltype` expressions). As a result, queries using this library may see fewer false positives.

### Bug Fixes

* Fixed some accidental predicate visibility in the backwards-compatible wrapper for data flow configurations. In particular `DataFlow::hasFlowPath`, `DataFlow::hasFlow`, `DataFlow::hasFlowTo`, and `DataFlow::hasFlowToExpr` were accidentally exposed in a single version.

## 0.6.1

No user-facing changes.

## 0.6.0

### Breaking Changes

* The `semmle.code.cpp.commons.Buffer` and `semmle.code.cpp.commons.NullTermination` libraries no longer expose `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.DataFlow`. Please import `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.DataFlow` directly.

### Deprecated APIs

* The `WriteConfig` taint tracking configuration has been deprecated. Please use `WriteFlow`.

### New Features

* Added support for merging two `PathGraph`s via disjoint union to allow results from multiple data flow computations in a single `path-problem` query.

### Major Analysis Improvements

* A new C/C++ dataflow library (`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow`) has been added.
  The new library behaves much more like the dataflow library of other CodeQL supported
  languages by following use-use dataflow paths instead of def-use dataflow paths.
  The new library also better supports dataflow through indirections, and new predicates
  such as `Node::asIndirectExpr` have been added to facilitate working with indirections.

  The `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.DataFlow` library is now identical to the new
  `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.new.DataFlow` library.
* The main data flow and taint tracking APIs have been changed. The old APIs
  remain in place for now and translate to the new through a
  backwards-compatible wrapper. If multiple configurations are in scope
  simultaneously, then this may affect results slightly. The new API is quite
  similar to the old, but makes use of a configuration module instead of a
  configuration class.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Deleted the deprecated `hasGeneratedCopyConstructor` and `hasGeneratedCopyAssignmentOperator` predicates from the `Folder` class.
* Deleted the deprecated `getPath` and `getFolder` predicates from the `XmlFile` class.
* Deleted the deprecated `getMustlockFunction`, `getTrylockFunction`, `getLockFunction`, and `getUnlockFunction` predicates from the `MutexType` class.
* Deleted the deprecated `getPosInBasicBlock` predicate from the `SubBasicBlock` class.
* Deleted the deprecated `getExpr` predicate from the `PointerDereferenceExpr` class.
* Deleted the deprecated `getUseInstruction` and `getDefinitionInstruction` predicates from the `Operand` class.
* Deleted the deprecated `isInParameter`, `isInParameterPointer`, and `isInQualifier` predicates from the `FunctionInput` class.
* Deleted the deprecated `isOutParameterPointer`, `isOutQualifier`, `isOutReturnValue`, and `isOutReturnPointer` predicate from the `FunctionOutput` class.
* Deleted the deprecated 3-argument `isGuardPhi` predicate from the `RangeSsaDefinition` class.

### Breaking Changes

The predicates in the `MustFlow::Configuration` class used by the `MustFlow` library (`semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.MustFlow`) have changed to be defined directly in terms of the C++ IR instead of IR dataflow nodes.

### Deprecated APIs

* Deprecated `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.DefaultTaintTracking`. Use `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.TaintTracking`.
* Deprecated `semmle.code.cpp.security.TaintTrackingImpl`. Use `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.TaintTracking`.
* Deprecated `semmle.code.cpp.valuenumbering.GlobalValueNumberingImpl`. Use `semmle.code.cpp.valuenumbering.GlobalValueNumbering`, which exposes the same API.

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* The `ArgvSource` flow source now uses the second parameter of `main` as its source instead of the uses of this parameter.
* The `ArgvSource` flow source has been generalized to handle cases where the argument vector of `main` is not named `argv`.
* The `getaddrinfo` function is now recognized as a flow source.
* The `secure_getenv` and `_wgetenv` functions are now recognized as local flow sources.
* The `scanf` and `fscanf` functions and their variants are now recognized as flow sources.
* Deleted the deprecated `getName` and `getShortName` predicates from the `Folder` class.

## 0.4.3

### Minor Analysis Improvements

* Fixed bugs in the `FormatLiteral` class that were causing `getMaxConvertedLength` and related predicates to return no results when the format literal was `%e`, `%f` or `%g` and an explicit precision was specified.

## 0.4.2

No user-facing changes.

## 0.4.1

## 0.3.3

### New Features

* Added a predicate `getValueConstant` to `AttributeArgument` that yields the argument value as an `Expr` when the value is a constant expression.
* A new class predicate `MustFlowConfiguration::allowInterproceduralFlow` has been added to the `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.MustFlow` library. The new predicate can be overridden to disable interprocedural flow.
* Added subclasses of `BuiltInOperations` for `__builtin_bit_cast`, `__builtin_shuffle`, `__has_unique_object_representations`, `__is_aggregate`, and `__is_assignable`.

### Major Analysis Improvements

* The IR dataflow library now includes flow through global variables. This enables new findings in many scenarios.

## 0.3.2

### Bug Fixes

* Under certain circumstances a variable declaration that is not also a definition could be associated with a `Variable` that did not have the definition as a `VariableDeclarationEntry`. This is now fixed, and a unique `Variable` will exist that has both the declaration and the definition as a `VariableDeclarationEntry`.

## 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

## 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

### 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

### 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
