[GSoC] Extending C++ Support in -fanalyzer - Status Report 3

This is a status report for a Google Summer of Code project to extend C++ support in GCC’s static analyzer (-fanalyzer). The student has merged patches for exception handling and virtual function support. The main focus for the past few weeks was implementing dynamic_cast support, which resulted in a large patch that is now awaiting review. The project also involves updating the analyzer’s C++ wiki page.
