[Qt-creator] What are your favorite clang-tidy checks

[Michael Jackson]

Can I just have it blanket fix ALL issues that it finds in a file? Kind of like “Clang Format” but for Clang-Tidy? I have been toying with writing a script that would attempt to do that for our code base.

 

I guess I should download the latest QtCreator and give that a spin.

Yes, there are checkboxes for fix-its so you can apply selected ones.

That's a great addition! Can it also run fixits?

In Qt Creator 4.7 there's a separate tool (Analyze menu) that runs Clang-Tidy checks over the selected files which does not affect your opened documents. I hope it solves your problem at least partially :)

I tend to go back and forth between turning it off so that code completion actually completes in a reasonable amount of time (~1 second) or having all the helpful insights into my code base. It is almost like QtCreator needs to have 2 threads running. One for the code completion and one for the clang-tidy stuff.

Hi!

 

On the contributors summit I mentioned that we want to introduce the "default" set of flags for Clang-Tidy which can be used as a starting point for analysis and is good enough for some random project developed in Qt Creator.

We have an example of it in https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/230400/ but not sure if it is actually the proper list.

 

Here's the list itself - "bugprone-*,cppcoreguidelines-*,misc-*,modernize-*,performance-*,readability-*,-cppcoreguidelines-owning-memory,-readability-braces-around-statements,-readability-implicit-bool-conversion,-readability-named-parameter"

 

Let us know if there's something you would like to add or remove from it. You can check the whole tree of currently available checks in 4.7 beta or in one of our latest Qt Creator snapshots.

 

Kind regards,

Ivan
