Clang-Tidy is a lint tool based on Clang. See the project's page for details.

Installation

Clang-Tidy is part of the Clang project, but it isn't built by default. You need to enable compilation of the Extra Clang Tools to get it. See the build tutorial for details.

Checker options

g:syntastic_clang_tidy_config_file (string; default: '.syntastic_clang_tidy_config')

file containing compilation flags (such as defines or include directories), one option per line

Notes

By default you can set clang-tidy parameters in g:syntastic_cpp_clang_tidy_args, and compilation parameters (defines, optimisation flags, etc.) in the configuration file.

If you want clang-tidy to use compilation databases (perhaps generated by CMake or Build EAR) rather than pass compilation flags explicitly, set g:syntastic_cpp_clang_tidy_post_args to an empty string:

let g:syntastic_cpp_clang_tidy_post_args = ""

(configuration files pointed to by g:syntastic_clang_tidy_config_file are then ignored).
