 <h1>Release notes for <tt>checker-XXX</tt> builds</h1>
+<h4 id="checker_279">checker-279</h4>
+<p><b>built:</b> November 14, 2016</br>

+	<ul>
+    <li>The analyzer includes new checks for:
+      <ul>
+        <li>Improper instance cleanup up in Objective-C -dealloc methods under manual retain/release.</li>
+        <li>Inadvertant comparisons of NSNumber, CFNumberRef, and other number object pointers against scalar values.</li>
+        <li>Unsafe usage of dispatch_once_t predicates stored in Objective-C instance variables and other heap-allocated memory.</li>
+        <li>Issues resulting from self-assignment in C++.</li>
+        <li>Incorrect usage of MPI APIs in C and C++. This check can be enabled by passing the following command to scan-build: <br />
+  &nbsp;&nbsp;<tt>-enable-checker optin.mpi.MPI-Checker</tt></li>
+    </ul>
+    <li>The scan-build tool now supports a <tt>--force-analyze-debug-code flag</tt> that forces projects to analyze in debug mode. This flag leaves in assertions and so typically results in fewer false positives.</li>
+    <li>Additional miscellaneous improvements.</li>
+    <li>Now requires macOS 10.8 or later.</li>
+	</ul>
