An inconsistent behavior in the resourceLeak checker

[safans]

Hi, I found inconsistent behavior in Cppcheck when analyzing the following two equivalent programs.

Cppcheck reports a warning for the first program, but no warning for the second one. I believe this is a false negative.

First Program with a Warning

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    const FILE *a = fopen("good.c", "r");
    if (!a)
        return 0;
    return 0;
}

Second Program without Warnings

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
  const auto a = fopen("good.c", "r");
  if (!a)
    return 0;
  return 0;
}

Version: Cppcheck 2.22 dev
