      On the point where PreStmt callbacks are called, the expression

        <div>       </div>
        <div>My input test case for the checker is test1.c and I run the
          command clang -cc1 -analyze
          -analyzer-checker=optin.<wbr>performance.<wbr>PathSpecificConstants
          test1.c where PathSpecificConstants is the name of my checker:</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>
          <div>test(int x) {</div>

        <div>When I print "Sym" in gdb at the break point Stmt 1, I

          do not understand this. I would have thought that at least the
          expression x + y would be represented by a symbolic value such
          as $0. I tried doing const MemRegion *mem = val.getAsRegion()
          also at that  point and tried to print out mem in gdb. That
          also has a value 0x0 except for the printf statement. I cannot
          understand this too. I would have expected variables such as
          "x", "y" and "a" to be associated with a memory region and
          hence mem to have a non-null value at least at the points
          where y and a are being assigned to.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>My plan was to use Sym as the index into a custom map that
          I have created where I am storing the values of constants seen
          in the test case. I am unable to get this plan working since
          Sym is always 0x0.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I have gone through the Checker Developer Manual. I am
          sorry to be asking specific questions about my code in this
          fashion, but, unfortunately, I am stuck at this point.</div>

                                              <div>I am new to the Clang

                                                solve quickly

                                              <div>I want to identify
                                                program locations such

                                              <div><br>
                                              </div>
                                              <div>I started writing a
                                                checker to accomplish
                                                the above task, but was
                                                quickly blocked by some
                                                basic doubts. My rough
                                                plan for the checker was
                                                to maintain a map in
                                                ProgramState which maps
                                                ProgramPoints (or, maybe
                                                program symbols) to
                                                constants when those
                                                variables indeed have
                                                constant values at the
                                                ProgramPoint. For
                                                example, when CFA
                                                expands states along the
                                                then-path and reaches
                                                "L", my map would say
                                                that at ProgramPoint
                                                "L", variable x has a
                                                constant value 4. Then,
                                                when CFA expands nodes
                                                along the else-path, I
                                                guess it would again
                                                create a state
                                                corresponding to L which
                                                now says that x has the
                                                constant value 5. I want
                                                to be able to catch this
                                                scenario where the same
                                                variable at the same
                                                ProgramPoint has two
                                                different constant
                                                values depending on the
                                                path taken.</div>
                                              <div><br>
                                              </div>
                                              <div>However, the issue is
                                                that, when the state
                                                graph along the
                                                else-path is expanded,
                                                it would no longer have
                                                any of the map contents
                                                that was built along the
                                                disjoint then-path. How
                                                then can I get access to
                                                the then-path
                                                information when I am
                                                expanding the path along
                                                the else-path? Since the
                                                checker is also required
                                                to be stateless, I
                                                cannot maintain
