28// Modeling of un-inlined AssertionResult constructors
29//
30// The gtest unit testing API provides macros for assertions that expand
31// into an if statement that calls a series of constructors and returns
32// when the "assertion" is false.
33//
34// For example,
35//
36// ASSERT_TRUE(a == b)
37//
38// expands into:
39//
40// switch (0)
41// case 0:
42// default:
43// if (const ::testing::AssertionResult gtest_ar_ =
44// ::testing::AssertionResult((a == b)))
45// ;
46// else
47// return ::testing::internal::AssertHelper(
48// ::testing::TestPartResult::kFatalFailure,
49// "<path to project>",
50// <line number>,
51// ::testing::internal::GetBoolAssertionFailureMessage(
52// gtest_ar_, "a == b", "false", "true")
53// .c_str()) = ::testing::Message();
54//
55// where AssertionResult is defined similarly to
56//
57// class AssertionResult {
58// public:
59// AssertionResult(const AssertionResult& other);
60// explicit AssertionResult(bool success) : success_(success) {}
61// operator bool() const { return success_; }
62// ...
63// private:
64// bool success_;
65// };
66//
67// In order for the analyzer to correctly handle this assertion, it needs to
68// know that the boolean value of the expression "a == b" is stored the
69// 'success_' field of the original AssertionResult temporary and propagated
70// (via the copy constructor) into the 'success_' field of the object stored
71// in 'gtest_ar_'. That boolean value will then be returned from the bool
72// conversion method in the if statement. This guarantees that the assertion
73// holds when the return path is not taken.
74//
75// If the success value is not properly propagated, then the eager case split
76// on evaluating the expression can cause pernicious false positives
77// on the non-return path:
78//
79// ASSERT(ptr != NULL)
80// *ptr = 7; // False positive null pointer dereference here
81//
82// Unfortunately, the bool constructor cannot be inlined (because its
83// implementation is not present in the headers) and the copy constructor is
84// not inlined (because it is constructed into a temporary and the analyzer
85// does not inline these since it does not yet reliably call temporary
86// destructors).
87//
88// This checker compensates for the missing inlining by propagating the
89// _success value across the bool and copy constructors so the assertion behaves
90// as expected.
