ALE C++ Integration                                           *ale-cpp-options*


===============================================================================
Global Options

The |g:ale_c_build_dir_names| and |g:ale_c_build_dir| also apply to some C++
linters too.


===============================================================================
clang                                                           *ale-cpp-clang*

g:ale_cpp_clang_executable                         *g:ale_cpp_clang_executable*
                                                   *b:ale_cpp_clang_executable*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `'clang++'`

  This variable can be changed to use a different executable for clang.


g:ale_cpp_clang_options                               *g:ale_cpp_clang_options*
                                                      *b:ale_cpp_clang_options*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `'-std=c++14 -Wall'`

  This variable can be changed to modify flags given to clang.


===============================================================================
clangcheck                                                 *ale-cpp-clangcheck*

`clang-check` will be run only when files are saved to disk, so that
`compile_commands.json` files can be used. It is recommended to use this
linter in combination with `compile_commands.json` files.
Therefore, `clang-check` linter reads the options |g:ale_c_build_dir| and
|g:ale_c_build_dir_names|. Also, setting |g:ale_c_build_dir| actually
overrides |g:ale_c_build_dir_names|.


g:ale_cpp_clangcheck_executable               *g:ale_cpp_clangcheck_executable*
                                              *b:ale_cpp_clangcheck_executable*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `'clang-check'`

  This variable can be changed to use a different executable for clangcheck.


g:ale_cpp_clangcheck_options                     *g:ale_cpp_clangcheck_options*
                                                 *b:ale_cpp_clangcheck_options*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `''`

  This variable can be changed to modify flags given to clang-check.

  This variable should not be set to point to build subdirectory with
  `-p path/to/build` option, as it is handled by the |g:ale_c_build_dir|
  option.


===============================================================================
clang-format                                              *ale-cpp-clangformat*

See |ale-c-clangformat| for information about the available options.
Note that the C options are also used for C++.


===============================================================================
clangtidy                                                   *ale-cpp-clangtidy*

`clang-tidy` will be run only when files are saved to disk, so that
`compile_commands.json` files can be used. It is recommended to use this
linter in combination with `compile_commands.json` files.
Therefore, `clang-tidy` linter reads the options |g:ale_c_build_dir| and
|g:ale_c_build_dir_names|. Also, setting |g:ale_c_build_dir| actually
overrides |g:ale_c_build_dir_names|.


g:ale_cpp_clangtidy_checks                         *g:ale_cpp_clangtidy_checks*
                                                   *b:ale_cpp_clangtidy_checks*
  Type: |List|
  Default: `['*']`

  The checks to enable for clang-tidy with the `-checks` argument.

  All options will be joined with commas, and escaped appropriately for
  the shell. The `-checks` flag can be removed entirely by setting this
  option to an empty List.


g:ale_cpp_clangtidy_executable                 *g:ale_cpp_clangtidy_executable*
                                               *b:ale_cpp_clangtidy_executable*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `'clang-tidy'`

  This variable can be changed to use a different executable for clangtidy.


g:ale_cpp_clangtidy_options                       *g:ale_cpp_clangtidy_options*
                                                  *b:ale_cpp_clangtidy_options*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `''`

  This variable can be changed to modify flags given to clang-tidy.

  - Setting this variable to a non-empty string,
  - and working in a buffer where no compilation database is found using
    |g:ale_c_build_dir_names| or |g:ale_c_build_dir|,
  will cause the `--` argument to be passed to `clang-tidy`, which will mean
  that detection of `compile_commands.json` files for compile command
  databases will be disabled.
  Only set this option if you want to control compiler flags
  entirely manually, and no `compile_commands.json` file is in one
  of the |g:ale_c_build_dir_names| directories of the project tree.


===============================================================================
cppcheck                                                     *ale-cpp-cppcheck*

g:ale_cpp_cppcheck_executable                   *g:ale_cpp_cppcheck_executable*
                                                *b:ale_cpp_cppcheck_executable*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `'cppcheck'`

  This variable can be changed to use a different executable for cppcheck.


g:ale_cpp_cppcheck_options                         *g:ale_cpp_cppcheck_options*
                                                   *b:ale_cpp_cppcheck_options*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `'--enable=style'`

  This variable can be changed to modify flags given to cppcheck.

g:ale_cpp_cpplint_executable                     *g:ale_cpp_cpplint_executable*
                                                 *b:ale_cpp_cpplint_executable*
  Type: |String|
  Default: `'cpplint'`

  This variable can be changed to use a different executable for cpplint.


g:ale_cpp_cpplint_options                           *g:ale_cpp_cpplint_options*
                                                    *b:ale_cpp_cpplint_options*
