DESCRIPTION
USAGE: clang-check [options] <source0> [... <sourceN>]
OPTIONS:
Generic Options:
-help - Display available options (-help-hidden
for more)
-help-list - Display list of available options
(-help-list-hidden for more)
-version - Display the version of this program
clang-check options:
-analyze - Run static analysis engine
-ast-dump - Build ASTs and then debug dump them
-ast-dump-filter=<string> - Use with -ast-dump or -ast-print to
dump/print only AST declaration nodes having a certain substring
in a qualified name. Use -ast-list to list all filterable decla‐
ration node names.
-ast-list - Build ASTs and print the list of declara‐
tion node qualified names
-ast-print - Build ASTs and then pretty-print them
-extra-arg=<string> - Additional argument to append to the com‐
piler command line
-extra-arg-before=<string> - Additional argument to prepend to the com‐
piler command line
-fix-what-you-can - Apply fix-it advice even in the presence
of unfixable errors
-fixit - Apply fix-it advice to the input source
-p=<string> - Build path
-p <build-path> is used to read a compile command database.
For example, it can be a CMake build directory in which a file
named compile_commands.json exists (use -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COM‐
PILE_COMMANDS=ON CMake option to get this output). When no build
path is specified, a search for compile_commands.json will be
attempted through all parent paths of the first input file .
See: http://clang.llvm.org/docs/HowToSetupToolingForLLVM.html
for an example of setting up Clang Tooling on a source tree.
<source0> ... specify the paths of source files. These paths are
looked up in the compile command database. If the path of a file
is absolute, it needs to point into CMake's source tree. If the
path is relative, the current working directory needs to be in
the CMake source tree and the file must be in a subdirectory of
the current working directory. "./" prefixes in the relative
files will be automatically removed, but the rest of a relative
path must be a suffix of a path in the compile command database.
For example, to run clang-check on all files in a subtree of the
source tree, use:
find path/in/subtree -name '*.cpp'|xargs clang-check
or using a specific build path:
find path/in/subtree -name '*.cpp'|xargs clang-check -p
build/path
Note, that path/in/subtree and current directory should follow
the rules described above.

The full documentation for clang-check is maintained as a Texinfo man‐
ual. If the info and clang-check programs are properly installed at
your site, the command
info clang-check
should give you access to the complete manual.
