+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  Foo();
+  Foo F = Foo();
+  func(Foo());

+

+

+  Foo F;                 // Non-temporary construction okay
+  Foo F(param);          // Non-temporary construction okay
+  Foo *F = new Foo();    // New construction okay
+
+  Bar();                 // Not NS::Bar, so okay
+  NS::Bar B;             // Non-temporary construction okay
+
+Note that objects must be explicitly specified in order to be flagged,
+and so objects that inherit a specified object will not be flagged.
+
+This check matches temporary objects without regard for inheritance and so a
+prohibited base class type does not similarly prohibit derived class types.
