Vote for SAST support for Delphi in GitLab

[Darian Miller 365]

Issue created, status is waiting on further demand before action is taken:

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/254725

 

GitLab offers built-in SAST support for many languages and suggest creating an issue to add support for any dev language.  Issue created, just need your votes!

To me that feature request makes little sense without actually pointing to a scan tool that handles Delphi/ObjectPascal as GitLab itself does not do that but just bridges to said external tool - see the second link in the previous comment.

 

Edit: Ah ok, their approach is to build a generic scan engine - see https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/3260 - would been kinda cool to provide some more information before asking to vote for something you have to gather information about on your own.

I doubt most of us would benefit from this feature:
