The functionality is incomplete and the authors have since shifted gears to other work, so this is effectively unmaintained. The original design document for clang-pseudo can be found at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eGkTOsFja63wsv8v0vd5JdoTonj-NlN3ujGF0T7xDbM/edit in case anyone wishes to pick this project back up again in the future.

Major New Features
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
- The ``clang-pseudo`` tool is incomplete and does not have active maintainers,
|
|
so it has been removed. See
|
|
`the RFC <https://discourse.llvm.org/t/removing-pseudo-parser/71131/>`_ for
|
|
more details.

|
|
|
|
Changes in existing checks
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-casting-through-void
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/casting-through-void>` check to suggest replacing
|
|
the offending code with ``reinterpret_cast``, to more clearly express intent.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-forwarding-reference-overload
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/forwarding-reference-overload>` check by fixing
|
|
a crash when determining if an ``enable_if[_t]`` was found.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`bugprone-sizeof-expression
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/sizeof-expression>` check to find suspicious
|
|
usages of ``sizeof()``, ``alignof()``, and ``offsetof()`` when adding or
|
|
subtracting from a pointer.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`cert-flp30-c <clang-tidy/checks/cert/flp30-c>` check to
|
|
fix false positive that floating point variable is only used in increment
|
|
expression.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-prefer-member-initializer
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines/prefer-member-initializer>` check to
|
|
avoid false positive when member initialization depends on a structured
|
|
binding variable.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`misc-definitions-in-headers
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/definitions-in-headers>` check by rewording the
|
|
diagnostic note that suggests adding ``inline``.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`modernize-avoid-c-arrays
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/avoid-c-arrays>` check to suggest using ``std::span``
|
|
as a replacement for parameters of incomplete C array type in C++20 and
|
|
``std::array`` or ``std::vector`` before C++20.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-std-format
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-std-format>` check to support replacing
|
|
member function calls too.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`misc-unconventional-assign-operator
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/misc/unconventional-assign-operator>` check to avoid
|
|
false positive for C++23 deducing this.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`modernize-min-max-use-initializer-list
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/min-max-use-initializer-list>` check by fixing
|
|
a false positive when only an implicit conversion happened inside an
|
|
initializer list.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`modernize-use-std-print
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-std-print>` check to support replacing
|
|
member function calls too.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`readability-enum-initial-value
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/enum-initial-value>` check by only issuing
|
|
diagnostics for the definition of an ``enum``, and by fixing a typo in the
|
|
diagnostic.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`performance-avoid-endl
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/performance/avoid-endl>` check to use ``std::endl`` as
|
|
placeholder when lexer cannot get source text.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`readability-container-contains
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/container-contains>` check to let it work on
|
|
any class that has a ``contains`` method.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`readability-implicit-bool-conversion
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/implicit-bool-conversion>` check
|
|
by adding the option `UseUpperCaseLiteralSuffix` to select the
|
|
case of the literal suffix in fixes.
|
|
|
|
- Improved :doc:`readability-redundant-smartptr-get
|
|
<clang-tidy/checks/readability/redundant-smartptr-get>` check to
|
|
remove `->`, when redundant `get()` is removed.
