modernize-deprecated-headers
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
Some headers from C library were deprecated in C++ and are no longer welcome in
|
|
C++ codebases. Some have no effect in C++. For more details refer to the C++ 14
|
|
Standard [depr.c.headers] section.
|
|
|
|
This check replaces C standard library headers with their C++ alternatives and
|
|
removes redundant ones.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c++
|
|
|
|
// C++ source file...
|
|
#include <assert.h>
|
|
#include <stdbool.h>
|
|
|
|
// becomes
|
|
|
|
#include <cassert>
|
|
// No 'stdbool.h' here.
|
|
|
|
Important note: the Standard doesn't guarantee that the C++ headers declare all
|
|
the same functions in the global namespace. The check in its current form can
|
|
break the code that uses library symbols from the global namespace.
|
|
|
|
* `<assert.h>`
|
|
* `<complex.h>`
|
|
* `<ctype.h>`
|
|
* `<errno.h>`
|
|
* `<fenv.h>` // deprecated since C++11
|
|
* `<float.h>`
|
|
* `<inttypes.h>`
|
|
* `<limits.h>`
|
|
* `<locale.h>`
|
|
* `<math.h>`
|
|
* `<setjmp.h>`
|
|
* `<signal.h>`
|
|
* `<stdarg.h>`
|
|
* `<stddef.h>`
|
|
* `<stdint.h>`
|
|
* `<stdio.h>`
|
|
* `<stdlib.h>`
|
|
* `<string.h>`
|
|
* `<tgmath.h>` // deprecated since C++11
|
|
* `<time.h>`
|
|
* `<uchar.h>` // deprecated since C++11
|
|
* `<wchar.h>`
|
|
* `<wctype.h>`
|
|
|
|
If the specified standard is older than C++11 the check will only replace
|
|
headers deprecated before C++11, otherwise -- every header that appeared in
|
|
the previous list.
|
|
|
|
These headers don't have effect in C++:
|
|
|
|
* `<iso646.h>`
|
|
* `<stdalign.h>`
|
|
* `<stdbool.h>`
|
|
|
|
The checker ignores `include` directives within `extern "C" { ... }` blocks,
|
|
since a library might want to expose some API for C and C++ libraries.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c++
|
|
|
|
// C++ source file...
|
|
extern "C" {
|
|
#include <assert.h> // Left intact.
|
|
#include <stdbool.h> // Left intact.
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Options
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
.. option:: CheckHeaderFile
|
|
|
|
`clang-tidy` cannot know if the header file included by the currently
|
|
analyzed C++ source file is not included by any other C source files.
|
|
Hence, to omit false-positives and wrong fixit-hints, we ignore emitting
|
|
reports into header files. One can set this option to `true` if they know
|
|
that the header files in the project are only used by C++ source file.
|
|
Default is `false`.
