Published Standards are no longer generated automatically from "Standard" tags. Instead, they're read like plugins from plugins/CodeCheck/Configs and the descriptions use the configuration description instead of the previous description.htm files. Graphs: UML Sequence Diagram: add option to show parameters. Import: Visual Studio import support system includes given in AdditionalOptions. Options: Fix for new automatic architecture dialog initial size. Python API: Fix potential crash in external Python when running scripts that manipulate sys.path directly instead of setting PYTHONPATH in the environment Language - C#: Fix issue where the line count metric was incorrect for some files containing syntax errors. Fix syntax errors on valid code with partial methods, delegate pointers, and multi-line strings followed by 'u8'.
