This release corresponds to release 1.24.x of LGTM Enterprise, and should be used when creating databases that will be uploaded to it.
Future CLI releases (numbered 2.2.x) may produce databases that are not backwards compatible with this version of LGTM Enterprise.

For all puposes other than creating databases for LGTM Enterprise we recommend that you continue upgrading to 2.2.x CLI releases as they become available. In fact, you might want to skip this one; a 2.2.0 release that tracks LGTM.com instead should arrive later this week.

• A new codeql query format command exposes the QL autoformatter for use on the command line.

• -J command-line options that contain spaces now ought to work on Windows. They still do not work reliably on Linux or MacOS, though.

• Fixes a bug in codeql execute cli-server (a helper used by the VS Code extension) which would sometimes cause query compilation to fail until the extension was restarted.

• Fixes a bug in codeql database upgrade which could lead to performance losses if the upgraded database was subsequently used with LGTM or the legacy Semmle Core product.

• Fixes a bug in the QL evaluator that would sometimes lead to crashes for queries that use the new unique aggregate added in release 2.1.0.

• The value of the --compilation-cache-size option is now correctly interpreted as a number of megabytes rather than a number of bytes.

This release still should not be used if you plan to create databases for upload to LGTM Enterprise.

Potentially breaking change: In query suite definitions, filter instructions that filter on the query path pseudo-tag will now always see the relative path to the query expressed with / as a directory separator, independently on the platform. Previously they erroneously used the platform's directory separator, meaning that query suites developed on Windows would not work correctly on Unix systems (and vice versa) if they used query path. Existing suite definitions developed on Windows may need to be updated to match the new behavior.

Updated license terms to allow CI use with GitHub Actions for open-source software.

This release still should not be used if you plan to create databases for upload to LGTM Enterprise.

Version 2.0.5 of the CodeQL CLI.

The bundled extractors (which are responsible for converting source code to databases for each supported language) are updated to match the versions currently used on LGTM.com. These are newer than the last release of LGTM Enterprise, so this release should not be used if you plan to upload databases to an LGTM Enterprise instance.

Version 2.0.4 of the CodeQL CLI.

The bundled extractors (which are responsible for converting source code to databases for each supported language) are updated to match the versions currently used on LGTM.com. These are newer than the last release of LGTM Enterprise, so this release should not be used if you plan to upload databases to an LGTM Enterprise instance.

Version 2.0.3 of the CodeQL CLI.

This release fixes a bug where codeql test run would fail with the message

com.semmle.util.exception.CatastrophicError: There should be a --library-path option for com.semmle.cli2.LibraryPathOptions.libraryPath but we didn't find it.

when running tests against the master branch of the CodeQL libraries for certain languages.

Version 2.0.2 of the CodeQL CLI.

The main highlight of this release is a new codeql test run subcommand for running unit tests of queries and QL libraries.

The bundled extractors (which are responsible for converting source code to databases for each supported language) are updated to match the versions currently used on LGTM.com. These are newer than the last release of LGTM Enterprise, so this release should not be used if you plan to upload databases to an LGTM Enterprise instance.
