@ -32,9 +32,9 @@ The following changes in version 1.23 affect C/C++ analysis in all applications.
`semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.TaintTracking` have had extensive changes:
* Data flow through fields is now more complete and reliable.
* The data-flow library has been extended with a new feature to aid debugging.
If you want to explore the possible flow from a source, replace
`isSink(Node n) { any() }` with the new `Configuration::hasPartialFlow` predicate.
This gives a more complete picture of the partial flow paths from a given source.
Previously, to explore the possible flow from all sources you could specify `isSink(Node n) { any() }` on a configuration.
Now you can use the new `Configuration::hasPartialFlow` predicate,
which gives a more complete picture of the partial flow paths from a given source, including flow that doesn't reach any sink.
The feature is disabled by default and can be enabled for individual configurations by overriding `int explorationLimit()`.
* There is now flow out of C++ reference parameters.
* There is now flow through the address-of operator (`&`).
