In this release, we've focused on improving the code analysis capabilities and extended our support for coding standards, including MISRA and Joint Strike Fighter (see New and Updated Code Analysis Rules for additional information.
This is a minor update to C/C++test DTP Engine. See the release notes for 10.3.0 for additional information.

| CODSTA-MCPP-08_b | Prefer 'auto' to explicit type names for function return types |
| CODSTA-MCPP-09 | Declare functions 'noexcept' if they will not emit exceptions |
| CODSTA-MCPP-11_a_cpp11 | Use constexpr to declare const variables whenever possible |
| CODSTA-MCPP-11_b_cpp11 | Use constexpr to declare functions whenever possible |
| CODSTA-MCPP-14 | Avoid Overloading on Forwarding References |
COMMENT-04 | Comment every function |
JSF-134 | Assumptions (limitations) made by functions should be documented in the function's preamble |
| JSF-071_c | A class's virtual functions shall not be invoked from any of its constructors |
| JSF-071.1 | A class's virtual functions shall not be invoked from any of its constructors |
| JSF-071.1_b | A class's virtual functions shall not be invoked from its destructor |
| JSF-119 | Functions shall not call themselves, either directly or indirectly |
| MISRA2004-16_2 | Functions shall not call themselves, either directly or indirectly |

Updates to the RuleWizard Module
The following nodes and properties have been added to RuleWizard:
- IsMoveAssignmentOperator (true for move assignment operator)
- IsCopyAssignmentOperator (true for copy assignment operator)
- HasDefaultValue property (true for function parameters with default value)
- IsDeclInCommaList property (true for variable declared in a comma-separated list of declarators)
- 'Vacuous destructor call' node (represents explicit destructor call for simple type or class that doesn't have one)
- NewDeclaration node (represents declaration of a new operator)
- DeleteDeclaration node (represents declaration of a delete operator)
See RuleWizard 10.3.1 User's Guide for more details.
Additional Updates and Enhancements
- Improved Flow Analysis execution.
- Updates to Japanese localization.

Release notes for 10.3.0 are missing from the entire website. How do I know if I want to upgrade from 9.5 to 10.3? Incremental updates like 10.3.1 don't show me feature additions.
