           Summary: warn on use of variable in else clause
           Product: clang

          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux

We'd like to warn on uses of the 'tested-as-zero-value' variable declared
inside an if-statement. For example:

  if (x = test()) {
    ...
  } else {
    doSomething(x);
  }

should issue a warning. However, this requires dataflow to do correctly:

  if (x = test()) {
    ...
  } else {
    x = test2();
    doSomething(x);
  }

should not issue a warning. Even more evil:

  if (x = test()) {
    ...
    goto label;
  } else {
label:
    doSomething(x);
  }

shouldn't issue a warning either. Please see bug 7100 for issues with the
previous implementation of this warning and
test/SemaCXX/warn-for-var-in-else.cpp for more examples we should warn about. (
