when one field in used uninitialized in another field initialization.
- Clang can detect initializer list use inside a macro and suggest parentheses
if possible to fix.
+- Many improvements to Clang's typo correction facilities, such as:
+ + Adding global namespace qualifiers so that corrections can refer to shadowed
+ or otherwise ambiguous or unreachable namespaces.
+ + Including accessible class members in the set of typo correction candidates,
+ so that corrections requiring a class name in the name specifier are now
+ possible.
+ + Allowing typo corrections that involve removing a name specifier.
+ + In some situations, correcting function names when a function was given the
+ wrong number of arguments, including situations where the original function
+ name was correct but was shadowed by a lexically closer function with the
+ same name yet took a different number of arguments.
+ + Offering typo suggestions for 'using' declarations.
+ + Providing better diagnostics and fixit suggestions in more situations when
+ a '->' was used instead of '.' or vice versa.
+ + Providing more relevant suggestions for typos followed by '.' or '='.
+ + Various performance improvements when searching for typo correction
+ candidates.
