Click here to show the 3 line(s) of Go which triggered the analyzer.
```go
for _, listener := range listen.CurrentPage().Listeners {
p.recordGoodResult(&lb, &listener)
}
```
Click here to show extra information the analyzer produced.
```
The following graphviz dot graph describes paths through the callgraph that could lead to a function which writes a pointer argument:
digraph G {
"(recordGoodResult, 2)" -> {}
}
No path was found through the callgraph that could lead to a function which passes a pointer to third-party code.
