Research direction
Start with the discussion in PR 165 and the DCL39-C rule description linked in the issue, then locate the shared query covering DCL39-C and DCL55-CPP. Compare its existing missing-initialization cases with the first noncompliant example described by the rule. Done means cases with an initializer but no assurance that padding is explicitly cleared are detected.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Context: conversation in this PR
this is a shared query.
It currently covers many cases relating to missing initialization,
however for the first NCE on the rule description, where there is an initializer but no assurance that the padding is explicitly cleared, these types of cases are currently not detected
