Support in the frontend for C++ language 21 features, however, does not automatically translate into support for 22 those features in the static analyzer. Language features need to be 23 specifically modeled in the static analyzer so their semantics can be 24 properly analyzed. Support for analyzing C++ and Objective-C++ files 25 is currently extremely limited, and we are only encouraging those who 26 are interested in contributing to the development of the analyzer to 27 try this functionality out at this time.</p> 28 29 <p>Listed here are a set of open tasks that are prerequisites for 30 decent analysis of C++.
