===================================================
.. contents::
:local:
:depth: 3
Written by the `LLVM Team <http://llvm.org/>`_
.. warning::
These are in-progress notes for the upcoming Extra Clang Tools 5 release.
Release notes for previous releases can be found on
`the Download Page <http://releases.llvm.org/download.html>`_.
Introduction
============
This document contains the release notes for the Extra Clang Tools, part of the
Clang release 5.0.0. Here we describe the status of the Extra Clang Tools in
some detail, including major improvements from the previous release and new
feature work. All LLVM releases may be downloaded from the `LLVM releases web
site <http://llvm.org/releases/>`_.
For more information about Clang or LLVM, including information about
the latest release, please see the `Clang Web Site <http://clang.llvm.org>`_ or
the `LLVM Web Site <http://llvm.org>`_.
Note that if you are reading this file from a Subversion checkout or the
main Clang web page, this document applies to the *next* release, not
the current one. To see the release notes for a specific release, please
see the `releases page <http://llvm.org/releases/>`_.
What's New in Extra Clang Tools 5.0.0?
======================================
Some of the major new features and improvements to Extra Clang Tools are listed
here. Generic improvements to Extra Clang Tools as a whole or to its underlying
infrastructure are described first, followed by tool-specific sections.
Major New Features
------------------
...
Improvements to clang-query
---------------------------
The improvements are...
Improvements to clang-rename
----------------------------
The improvements are...
Improvements to clang-tidy
--------------------------
- New `cert-dcl21-cpp
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/cert-dcl21-cpp.html>`_ check
Checks if the overloaded postfix ``operator++/--`` returns a constant object.
- New `cert-dcl58-cpp
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/cert-dcl58-cpp.html>`_ check
Finds modification of the ``std`` or ``posix`` namespace.
- Improved `cppcoreguidelines-no-malloc
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines-no-malloc.html>`_ check
Allow custom memory management functions to be considered as well.
- New `misc-forwarding-reference-overload
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/misc-forwarding-reference-overload.html>`_ check
Finds perfect forwarding constructors that can unintentionally hide copy or move constructors.
- New `misc-lambda-function-name <http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/misc-lambda-function-name.html>`_ check
Finds uses of ``__func__`` or ``__FUNCTION__`` inside lambdas.
- New `modernize-replace-random-shuffle
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/modernize-replace-random-shuffle.html>`_ check
Finds and fixes usage of ``std::random_shuffle`` as the function has been removed from C++17.
- New `modernize-return-braced-init-list
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/modernize-return-braced-init-list.html>`_ check
Finds and replaces explicit calls to the constructor in a return statement by
a braced initializer list so that the return type is not needlessly repeated.
- Improved `modernize-use-emplace
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/modernize-use-emplace.html>`_ check
Removes unnecessary ``std::make_pair`` and ``std::make_tuple`` calls in
push_back calls and turns them into emplace_back. The check now also is able
to remove user-defined make functions from ``push_back`` calls on containers
of custom tuple-like types by providing `TupleTypes` and `TupleMakeFunctions`.
- New `performance-inefficient-vector-operation
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/performance-inefficient-vector-operation.html>`_ check
Finds possible inefficient vector operations in for loops that may cause
unnecessary memory reallocations.
- Added `ParameterThreshold` to `readability-function-size
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/readability-function-size.html>`_ check
Finds functions that have more than `ParameterThreshold` parameters and emits a warning.
- New `readability-misleading-indentation
<http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/readability-misleading-indentation.html>`_ check
Finds misleading indentation where braces should be introduced or the code should be reformatted.
- Support clang-formatting of the code around applied fixes (``-format-style``
command-line option).
- New `hicpp` module
Adds checks that implement the `High Integrity C++ Coding Standard <http://www.codingstandard.com/section/index/>`_ and other safety
standards. Many checks are aliased to other modules.
