<h3><a name="Changes_from_Previous_Releases"></a>Changes from Previous Releases</h3>
<ul>
<li>Added support for the following IAD user-defined <a href="customizing_cs.htm">rules</a>. The new rules include:
<ul>
<li><span class="code"><flags></span> - new IAD rule to check flag usage</li>
<li><span class="code"><crepository> </span>- new IAD rule to check Central Repository usage</li>
<li><span class="code"><customizableicons> </span>- new IAD rule to check customizable icons</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Added support for <a href="pref_codescaner_01.htm">Knowledge Base Scanning</a>, the ability to scan code and detect possible API issues related to a specific SDK, for example when porting to a new Touch UI SDK. For each SDK, specific porting information is defined as a set of rules specified in XML files. CodeScanner can merge these into the existing set of CodeScanner rules for scanning operations. The results are displayed in the <strong>Console</strong> view and as information markers in source code.</li>
</ul>
<h4>2.1.1</h4>
<ul>
<li>Added support for user-defined rules. This can be done by adding a <span class="code"><customrules></span> element to the configuration file.</li>
<li>When scanning with low severity rules, CodeScanner now generates informative messages instead of warnings when the StdOut output format is selected.</li>
<li>Added support to disable individual error/warning via CodeScanner command embedded in comments. </li>
<li>Added new rule to check whether Cancel() function is called in active object's destructor.<br>
</li>
<li>Updated active object checking rule to ignore After() from RTimer type member variables.</li>
<li>Updated to skip excluded folders specified in configuration file when generating component summary reports.</li>
</ul>
<h4>2.1.0</h4>
<ul>
<li>Updated to skip excluded folders specified in configuration file when generating component summary reports.</li>
<li>Updated configuration file format to allow passing arguments to CodeScanner. One can now add an <arguments> element to the <br>
configuration file.</li>
<li>Added new rule to check stack-based resource objects not put on the cleanup stack.</li>
<li> Added new rule to check inheritance order of M and C classes. <br>
</li>
<li>Updated rule for L-functions that cannot leave. It is now possible to specify functions to be ignored by this rule in the<br>
configuration file. This is done by adding a <LFunctionIgnoreRE> element to the <LFunctionCantLeave> script element.<br>
</li>
<li>Updated description of rule for badly-named enum members.</li>
<li>Updated NULL equality check rule to ignore pointer comparisons with NULL inside various __ASSERT_XXX() macros.</li>
<li>Removed duplicate rule for hard-coded external drive letters. <br>
