//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
//
// This defines ObjCSelfInitChecker, a builtin check that checks for uses of
// 'self' before proper initialization.
//
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

// This checks initialization methods to verify that they assign 'self' to the
// result of an initialization call (e.g. [super init], or [self initWith..])
// before using 'self' or any instance variable.
//
// To perform the required checking, values are tagged wih flags that indicate
// 1) if the object is the one pointed to by 'self', and 2) if the object
// is the result of an initializer (e.g. [super init]).
//
// Uses of an object that is true for 1) but not 2) trigger a diagnostic.
// The uses that are currently checked are:
//  - Using instance variables.
//  - Returning the object.
//
// Note that we don't check for an invalid 'self' that is the receiver of an
// obj-c message expression to cut down false positives where logging functions
// get information from self (like its class) or doing "invalidation" on self
// when the initialization fails.
//
// Because the object that 'self' points to gets invalidated when a call
// receives a reference to 'self', the checker keeps track and passes the flags
// for 1) and 2) to the new object that 'self' points to after the call.
//
// FIXME (rdar://7937506): In the case of:
//   [super init];
//   return self;
// Have an extra PathDiagnosticPiece in the path that says "called [super init],
// but didn't assign the result to self."

//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

// FIXME: Somehow stick the link to Apple's documentation about initializing
// objects in the diagnostics.
