-
-- Updated ``cppcoreguidelines-pro-member-type-member-init`` check
-
-  This check now conforms to C++ Core Guidelines rule Type.6: Always Initialize
-  a Member Variable. The check examines every record type where construction
-  might result in an undefined memory state. These record types needing
-  initialization have at least one default-initialized built-in, pointer,
-  array or record type matching these criteria or a default-initialized
-  direct base class of this kind.
-
-  The check has two complementary aspects:
-
-  1. Ensure every constructor for a record type needing initialization
-     value-initializes all members and direct bases via a combination of
-     in-class initializers and the member initializer list.
-  2. Value-initialize every non-member instance of a record type needing
-     initialization that lacks a user-provided default constructor, e.g.
-     a POD.
