           Summary: "The left operand to '+' is always 0" false positive
           Product: clang
           Version: 2.9
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: Static Analyzer
        AssignedTo: kremenek at apple.com
        ReportedBy: drew at sealedabstract.com
                CC: llvmbugs at cs.uiuc.edu


(Using XCode 4 production a.k.a. tags/Apple/clang-137 "based on LLVM 2.9svn")

The following function:

void test(NSData* theData) {
    NSInteger i;
    for (i=0; i < 50; i += 3) {
        for (long j = i; j < (i + 3); j++) {
        }
    }    
}

generates an analyzer result with the message "The left operand to '+' is
always 0".  However, obviously i is incremented in the loop condition.  The
patch


-for (i=0; i < 50; i += 3) {
+for (i=2; i < 50; i += 3) {

produces no analyzer warning, nor does an inline declaration:

-NSInteger i;
-for (i=0; i < 50; i += 3) {
+for (NSInteger i=0; i < 50; i += 3) {
