The Ada compiler now parses and accepts three new aspects: Taint_Sanitizer, Taint_Sink, and Taint_Source. These aspects are intended for use with CodePeer, a static analysis tool, to perform taint analysis. The compiler front end ignores these aspects during semantic analysis, and they are not documented in the GNAT RM.
