* Updated path matching syntax for -i, --file-filter,
suppressions, GUI excludes, and project file excludes.
* Old patterns that use a `*` may need to use `**` instead if
it is intended to match path separators. More details can be
seen in the manual.
* Support for building with Qt 5 will be removed in Cppcheck
2.19.
* The platform 'unix32-unsigned' has been deprecated and will
be removed in Cppcheck 2.19. Please use '--platform=unix32
--funsigned-char' instead.
* The platform 'unix64-unsigned' has been deprecated and will
be removed in Cppcheck 2.19. Please use '--platform=unix64
--funsigned-char' instead.
* Updated Qt to 6.9.1 (official Windows release only).
* added CMake target `run-clang-tidy-csa` to run Clang Static
Analyzer
* added CMake option `ENABLE_CSA_ALPHA` to enable the Clang
Static Analyzer alpha checkers
* Updated TinyXML-2 to v11.0.0
* The minimum supported Python version has been bumped to 3.7.
* CMake will now unconditionally use Boost.Containers if
available. If CMake option `USE_BOOST` is specified it will
now bail out when it is not found.
* Fix checking a project that contains several project file
entries for the same file.
* Fixed --file-filter matching of looked up files in provided
paths.
* Split up cstyleCast checker; dangerous casts produce
portability/warning reports, safe casts produce style

* New checks:
- staticFunction: detect functions that should have internal
linkage since they are not used outside of their translation
unit (C code only).
- Check null pointer return from memory/resource allocation
functions (nullPointerOutOfMemory,
nullPointerArithmeticOutOfMemory, nullPointerOutOfResources,
ctunullpointerOutOfMemory,
ctunullpointerOutOfResources).
* Changed interface:
- Added `reduced` check level. It can be activated with
`--check-level=reduced`. You get faster analysis
but some fewer results. The motivation is to be able to make
analysis time "acceptable" for direct usage.
- Added `--report-type` option. Enables printing of guidelines
and classifications for several coding
standards in place of the regular error identifiers and
severities.
* Other:
- Removed deperecated support for builds via qmake.
- Using a handwritten rule texts file for MISRA C addon
violates license and copyright terms. See the
manual for instructions how to download a official rule
texts file from MISRA.
- switch to qt6

Improved checking:
* constVariable; checking multidimensional arrays
* constVariablePointer; nested array access
* deallocuse
Changed interface:
* SARIF output. Use --output-format=sarif to activate this.
* Add option --output-format=. Allowed formats are sarif and
xml.
Deprecations:
* The previously deprecated support for Python 2.7 has been
removed. Please use Python 3 instead.
* The maximum value for --max-ctu-depth is currently capped
at 10. This limitation will be removed in a future release.
Other:
* "missingInclude" is no longer implicitly enabled with
"information" - you need to enable it explicitly now.
* Fixed checkers report when --addon=misra.py or
--addon=misra.json is used.

- update to 2.15.0
* New check suspiciousFloatingPointCast flags unnecessary floating
point casts that cause loss of precision
* Added command-line option --cpp-header-probe (and
--no-cpp-header-probe) to probe headers and extension-less
files for Emacs marker
* Add support for 'CLICOLOR_FORCE'/'NO_COLOR' environment
variables to force/disable ANSI color output for diagnostics.
* Add "remark comments" that can be used to generate reports with
justifications for warnings
* The whole program analysis is now being executed when
"--project" is being used.
