A8-5-2: Create query to cover auto case

[lcartey]

Affected rules

• A8-5-2

Description

The rule A8-5-2 (use braced initialization) conflicts with rule A8-5-3 (A variable of type auto shall not be initialized using {} or ={} braced-initialization). This is because C++14 will deduce auto x2{10}; as std::initializer_list, which is usually not what the developer intended. This behaviour is changed in C++17, and in practice many compilers also address it in C++14 mode.

In order to use auto in a codebase and remain compliant to AUTOSAR a deviation is required either on A8-5-3, to allow braced initialization for auto variables where the compiler supports this, or for A8-5-2, to permit the use of = initialization with auto.

In the latter case we want to be able to deviate only on those cases which are declared as auto. To facilitate that we will split the rule between the auto and not auto. Currently, our query only supports the "non-auto" case.

Example

auto v = init();
