clang-tidy:tldr:2e155
The clang-tidy -checks=${*} -list-checks
command is used to list all the available checks for clang-tidy
.
Let's break down the command:
-
clang-tidy
is a static analyzer tool for C++ code that is part of the LLVM project. It helps to find and fix various issues in code. -
-checks=${*}
is an option that sets the checks to be enabled.${*}
is a placeholder that represents all available checks. By using this option, we are enabling all the checks forclang-tidy
to be listed. -
-list-checks
is an option that tellsclang-tidy
to list all the available checks instead of analyzing source code. This is useful for getting an overview of the available checks and their names.
When you execute the clang-tidy -checks=${*} -list-checks
command, it will display a list of all the available checks that can be used with clang-tidy
. This list helps programmers to choose which checks are relevant to their code and which ones they want to enable for their project.
