Code AC Rule Profile Consistency Across Language Compiler Versions

Standardizing Static Analysis Environments

Code AC utilizes version-controlled rule-set configuration files and profiles to maintain consistent quality gates across developer environments and CI/CD pipelines. These profiles define the activation and severity of rules applied during the parsing of source code into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST).

Compiler Dependency Constraints

While profiles standardize rule application, the analysis engine's behavior is tied to the underlying language compiler used during the process. This creates a potential discrepancy where identical configuration profiles may yield different analysis results if the environments utilize different compiler versions.

What are the documented limits regarding rule behavior consistency when the same profile is applied across different compiler versions? Is there a mechanism within Code AC to lock the compiler version to ensure absolute repeatability of the analysis output?
