the predefined styles (LLVM, Google, Chromium, Mozilla, WebKit, Microsoft) or
create a custom style by configuring specific style options.
Configuring Style with clang-format
===================================
:program:`clang-format` supports two ways to provide custom style options:
directly specify style configuration in the ``-style=`` command line option or
use ``-style=file`` and put style configuration in the ``.clang-format`` or
``_clang-format`` file in the project directory.
When using ``-style=file``, :program:`clang-format` for each input file will
try to find the ``.clang-format`` file located in the closest parent directory
of the input file. When the standard input is used, the search is started from
the current directory.
The ``.clang-format`` file uses YAML format:
.. code-block:: yaml
key1: value1
key2: value2
# A comment.
...
The configuration file can consist of several sections each having different
``Language:`` parameter denoting the programming language this section of the
configuration is targeted at. See the description of the **Language** option
below for the list of supported languages. The first section may have no
language set, it will set the default style options for all lanugages.
Configuration sections for specific language will override options set in the
default section.
When :program:`clang-format` formats a file, it auto-detects the language using
the file name. When formatting standard input or a file that doesn't have the
extension corresponding to its language, ``-assume-filename=`` option can be
used to override the file name :program:`clang-format` uses to detect the
language.
An example of a configuration file for multiple languages:
.. code-block:: yaml

# We'll use defaults from the LLVM style, but with 4 columns indentation.

Language: Cpp
# Force pointers to the type for C++.

An easy way to get a valid ``.clang-format`` file containing all configuration
options of a certain predefined style is:
.. code-block:: console
clang-format -style=llvm -dump-config > .clang-format
When specifying configuration in the ``-style=`` option, the same configuration
is applied for all input files. The format of the configuration is:
.. code-block:: console
-style='{key1: value1, key2: value2, ...}'
Disabling Formatting on a Piece of Code
=======================================
Clang-format understands also special comments that switch formatting in a
delimited range. The code between a comment ``// clang-format off`` or
``/* clang-format off */`` up to a comment ``// clang-format on`` or
``/* clang-format on */`` will not be formatted. The comments themselves
will be formatted (aligned) normally.
.. code-block:: c++
int formatted_code;
// clang-format off
void unformatted_code ;
// clang-format on
void formatted_code_again;
Configuring Style in Code
=========================
When using ``clang::format::reformat(...)`` functions, the format is specified
by supplying the `clang::format::FormatStyle
<https://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/structclang_1_1format_1_1FormatStyle.html>`_
structure.
Configurable Format Style Options
=================================
This section lists the supported style options. Value type is specified for
each option. For enumeration types possible values are specified both as a C++
enumeration member (with a prefix, e.g. ``LS_Auto``), and as a value usable in
the configuration (without a prefix: ``Auto``).
**BasedOnStyle** (``string``)
The style used for all options not specifically set in the configuration.
This option is supported only in the :program:`clang-format` configuration
(both within ``-style='{...}'`` and the ``.clang-format`` file).
Possible values:
* ``LLVM``
A style complying with the `LLVM coding standards
<https://llvm.org/docs/CodingStandards.html>`_
* ``Google``
A style complying with `Google's C++ style guide
<https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html>`_
* ``Chromium``
A style complying with `Chromium's style guide
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/styleguide/styleguide.md>`_
* ``Mozilla``
A style complying with `Mozilla's style guide

.. START_FORMAT_STYLE_OPTIONS
**AccessModifierOffset** (``int``)
2016-02-24 00:12:08 +08:00
The extra indent or outdent of access modifiers, e.g. ``public:``.
**AlignAfterOpenBracket** (``BracketAlignmentStyle``)
If ``true``, horizontally aligns arguments after an open bracket.
This applies to round brackets (parentheses), angle brackets and square
brackets.
Possible values:
* ``BAS_Align`` (in configuration: ``Align``)
Align parameters on the open bracket, e.g.:
.. code-block:: c++
someLongFunction(argument1,
argument2);
* ``BAS_DontAlign`` (in configuration: ``DontAlign``)
Don't align, instead use ``ContinuationIndentWidth``, e.g.:
.. code-block:: c++
someLongFunction(argument1,
argument2);
* ``BAS_AlwaysBreak`` (in configuration: ``AlwaysBreak``)
Always break after an open bracket, if the parameters don't fit
on a single line, e.g.:
.. code-block:: c++
someLongFunction(
argument1, argument2);
**AlignConsecutiveAssignments** (``bool``)
If ``true``, aligns consecutive assignments.
This will align the assignment operators of consecutive lines. This
will result in formattings like
.. code-block:: c++
int aaaa = 12;
int b = 23;
int ccc = 23;
**AlignConsecutiveBitFields** (``bool``)
If ``true``, aligns consecutive bitfield members.
This will align the bitfield separators of consecutive lines. This
will result in formattings like
.. code-block:: c++
int aaaa : 1;
int b : 12;
int ccc : 8;
**AlignConsecutiveDeclarations** (``bool``)
If ``true``, aligns consecutive declarations.
This will align the declaration names of consecutive lines. This
will result in formattings like
.. code-block:: c++
int aaaa = 12;
float b = 23;
std::string ccc = 23;
**AlignConsecutiveMacros** (``bool``)
If ``true``, aligns consecutive C/C++ preprocessor macros.
This will align C/C++ preprocessor macros of consecutive lines.
Will result in formattings like
.. code-block:: c++
#define SHORT_NAME 42
#define LONGER_NAME 0x007f
#define EVEN_LONGER_NAME (2)
#define foo(x) (x * x)
#define bar(y, z) (y + z)
**AlignEscapedNewlines** (``EscapedNewlineAlignmentStyle``)
Options for aligning backslashes in escaped newlines.
Possible values:
* ``ENAS_DontAlign`` (in configuration: ``DontAlign``)
Don't align escaped newlines.
.. code-block:: c++
#define A \
int aaaa; \
int b; \
int dddddddddd;
* ``ENAS_Left`` (in configuration: ``Left``)
Align escaped newlines as far left as possible.
.. code-block:: c++
true:
#define A \
int aaaa; \
int b; \
int dddddddddd;
false:
* ``ENAS_Right`` (in configuration: ``Right``)
Align escaped newlines in the right-most column.
.. code-block:: c++
#define A \
int aaaa; \
int b; \
int dddddddddd;
**AlignOperands** (``OperandAlignmentStyle``)
If ``true``, horizontally align operands of binary and ternary
expressions.
Possible values:
* ``OAS_DontAlign`` (in configuration: ``DontAlign``)
Do not align operands of binary and ternary expressions.
The wrapped lines are indented ``ContinuationIndentWidth`` spaces from
the start of the line.
* ``OAS_Align`` (in configuration: ``Align``)
Horizontally align operands of binary and ternary expressions.
Specifically, this aligns operands of a single expression that needs
to be split over multiple lines, e.g.:
.. code-block:: c++
int aaa = bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb +
ccccccccccccccc;
When ``BreakBeforeBinaryOperators`` is set, the wrapped operator is
aligned with the operand on the first line.
.. code-block:: c++
int aaa = bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
+ ccccccccccccccc;
* ``OAS_AlignAfterOperator`` (in configuration: ``AlignAfterOperator``)
Horizontally align operands of binary and ternary expressions.
This is similar to ``AO_Align``, except when
``BreakBeforeBinaryOperators`` is set, the operator is un-indented so
that the wrapped operand is aligned with the operand on the first line.
.. code-block:: c++
int aaa = bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
+ ccccccccccccccc;
**AlignTrailingComments** (``bool``)
If ``true``, aligns trailing comments.
.. code-block:: c++
true: false:
int a; // My comment a vs. int a; // My comment a
int b = 2; // comment b int b = 2; // comment about b
**AllowAllArgumentsOnNextLine** (``bool``)
If a function call or braced initializer list doesn't fit on a
line, allow putting all arguments onto the next line, even if
``BinPackArguments`` is ``false``.
.. code-block:: c++
true:
callFunction(
a, b, c, d);
false:
callFunction(a,
b,
c,
d);
**AllowAllConstructorInitializersOnNextLine** (``bool``)
If a constructor definition with a member initializer list doesn't
fit on a single line, allow putting all member initializers onto the next
line, if ```ConstructorInitializerAllOnOneLineOrOnePerLine``` is true.
Note that this parameter has no effect if
```ConstructorInitializerAllOnOneLineOrOnePerLine``` is false.
.. code-block:: c++
true:
MyClass::MyClass() :
member0(0), member1(2) {}
false:
MyClass::MyClass() :
member0(0),
member1(2) {}
**AllowAllParametersOfDeclarationOnNextLine** (``bool``)
If the function declaration doesn't fit on a line,
allow putting all parameters of a function declaration onto
the next line even if ``BinPackParameters`` is ``false``.
.. code-block:: c++

void myFunction(
int a, int b, int c, int d, int e);
false:
void myFunction(int a,
int b,
int c,
int d,
int e);

case 2: return; x = 1;
} break;
case 2:
return;
}
**AllowShortEnumsOnASingleLine** (``bool``)

.. code-block:: c++
auto lambda = [](int a) {}
auto lambda2 = [](int a) { return a; };
**AllowShortLoopsOnASingleLine** (``bool``)
If ``true``, ``while (true) continue;`` can be put on a single
line.
**AlwaysBreakAfterDefinitionReturnType** (``DefinitionReturnTypeBreakingStyle``)
The function definition return type breaking style to use. This
option is **deprecated** and is retained for backwards compatibility.
Possible values:
* ``DRTBS_None`` (in configuration: ``None``)
Break after return type automatically.
``PenaltyReturnTypeOnItsOwnLine`` is taken into account.
* ``DRTBS_All`` (in configuration: ``All``)
Always break after the return type.
* ``DRTBS_TopLevel`` (in configuration: ``TopLevel``)
Always break after the return types of top-level functions.
**AlwaysBreakAfterReturnType** (``ReturnTypeBreakingStyle``)

class A {
int f() { return 0; };
};
int f();
int f() { return 1; }
* ``RTBS_All`` (in configuration: ``All``)
Always break after the return type.

**AlwaysBreakBeforeMultilineStrings** (``bool``)
If ``true``, always break before multiline string literals.
This flag is mean to make cases where there are multiple multiline strings
in a file look more consistent. Thus, it will only take effect if wrapping
the string at that point leads to it being indented

T foo(int aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,
int bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb) {
}
**AttributeMacros** (``std::vector<std::string>``)
A vector of strings that should be interpreted as attributes/qualifiers
instead of identifiers. This can be useful for language extensions or
static analyzer annotations.
For example:
.. code-block:: c++
x = (char *__capability)&y;
int function(void) __ununsed;
void only_writes_to_buffer(char *__output buffer);
In the .clang-format configuration file, this can be configured like:
.. code-block:: yaml
AttributeMacros: ['__capability', '__output', '__ununsed']
**BinPackArguments** (``bool``)
If ``false``, a function call's arguments will either be all on the
same line or will have one line each.

Add one space on each side of the ``:``
.. code-block:: c++
unsigned bf : 2;
* ``BFCS_None`` (in configuration: ``None``)
Add no space around the ``:`` (except when needed for
``AlignConsecutiveBitFields``).
.. code-block:: c++
unsigned bf:2;
* ``BFCS_Before`` (in configuration: ``Before``)
Add space before the ``:`` only
.. code-block:: c++
unsigned bf :2;
* ``BFCS_After`` (in configuration: ``After``)
Add space after the ``:`` only (space may be added before if
needed for ``AlignConsecutiveBitFields``).
.. code-block:: c++
unsigned bf: 2;
**BraceWrapping** (``BraceWrappingFlags``)
Control of individual brace wrapping cases.
If ``BreakBeforeBraces`` is set to ``BS_Custom``, use this to specify how
each individual brace case should be handled. Otherwise, this is ignored.

true:
veryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryLongDescription
? firstValue
: SecondValueVeryVeryVeryVeryLong;
false:
veryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryLongDescription ?
firstValue :
SecondValueVeryVeryVeryVeryLong;
**BreakConstructorInitializers** (``BreakConstructorInitializersStyle``)
The constructor initializers style to use.

.. code-block:: c++
Constructor()
: initializer1(),

Break constructor initializers before the colon and commas, and align
the commas with the colon.
.. code-block:: c++

Break constructor initializers after the colon and commas.
.. code-block:: c++
Constructor() :
initializer1(),
initializer2()

The inheritance list style to use.
Possible values:
* ``BILS_BeforeColon`` (in configuration: ``BeforeColon``)
Break inheritance list before the colon and after the commas.
.. code-block:: c++
class Foo
: Base1,
Base2
{};
* ``BILS_BeforeComma`` (in configuration: ``BeforeComma``)
Break inheritance list before the colon and commas, and align
the commas with the colon.
.. code-block:: c++
class Foo
: Base1
, Base2
{};
* ``BILS_AfterColon`` (in configuration: ``AfterColon``)
Break inheritance list after the colon and commas.
.. code-block:: c++
class Foo :
Base1,
Base2
{};
**BreakStringLiterals** (``bool``)
Allow breaking string literals when formatting.
.. code-block:: c++
true:
const char* x = "veryVeryVeryVeryVeryVe"
"ryVeryVeryVeryVeryVery"
"VeryLongString";
false:
const char* x =
"veryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryLongString";
**ColumnLimit** (``unsigned``)
The column limit.
A column limit of ``0`` means that there is no column limit. In this case,
clang-format will respect the input's line breaking decisions within
statements unless they contradict other rules.
**CommentPragmas** (``std::string``)
A regular expression that describes comments with special meaning,
which should not be split into lines or otherwise changed.
.. code-block:: c++
// CommentPragmas: '^ FOOBAR pragma:'
// Will leave the following line unaffected
#include <vector> // FOOBAR pragma: keep
**CompactNamespaces** (``bool``)
If ``true``, consecutive namespace declarations will be on the same
line. If ``false``, each namespace is declared on a new line.
.. code-block:: c++
true:
namespace Foo { namespace Bar {
}}
false:
namespace Foo {
namespace Bar {
}
}
If it does not fit on a single line, the overflowing namespaces get
wrapped:
.. code-block:: c++
namespace Foo { namespace Bar {
namespace Extra {
}}}
**ConstructorInitializerAllOnOneLineOrOnePerLine** (``bool``)
If the constructor initializers don't fit on a line, put each
initializer on its own line.
.. code-block:: c++
true:
SomeClass::Constructor()
: aaaaaaaa(aaaaaaaa), aaaaaaaa(aaaaaaaa), aaaaaaaa(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa) {
return 0;
}
false:
SomeClass::Constructor()
: aaaaaaaa(aaaaaaaa), aaaaaaaa(aaaaaaaa),
aaaaaaaa(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa) {
return 0;
}
**ConstructorInitializerIndentWidth** (``unsigned``)
The number of characters to use for indentation of constructor
initializer lists as well as inheritance lists.
**ContinuationIndentWidth** (``unsigned``)
Indent width for line continuations.
.. code-block:: c++
ContinuationIndentWidth: 2
int i = // VeryVeryVeryVeryVeryLongComment
longFunction( // Again a long comment
arg);
**Cpp11BracedListStyle** (``bool``)
If ``true``, format braced lists as best suited for C++11 braced
lists.
Important differences:
- No spaces inside the braced list.
- No line break before the closing brace.
- Indentation with the continuation indent, not with the block indent.
Fundamentally, C++11 braced lists are formatted exactly like function
calls would be formatted in their place. If the braced list follows a name
(e.g. a type or variable name), clang-format formats as if the ``{}`` were
the parentheses of a function call with that name. If there is no name,
a zero-length name is assumed.
.. code-block:: c++
true: false:
vector<int> x{1, 2, 3, 4}; vs. vector<int> x{ 1, 2, 3, 4 };
vector<T> x{{}, {}, {}, {}}; vector<T> x{ {}, {}, {}, {} };
f(MyMap[{composite, key}]); f(MyMap[{ composite, key }]);
new int[3]{1, 2, 3}; new int[3]{ 1, 2, 3 };
**DeriveLineEnding** (``bool``)
Analyze the formatted file for the most used line ending (``\r\n``
or ``\n``). ``UseCRLF`` is only used as a fallback if none can be derived.
**DerivePointerAlignment** (``bool``)
If ``true``, analyze the formatted file for the most common
alignment of ``&`` and ``*``.
Pointer and reference alignment styles are going to be updated according
to the preferences found in the file.
``PointerAlignment`` is then used only as fallback.
**DisableFormat** (``bool``)
Disables formatting completely.
**ExperimentalAutoDetectBinPacking** (``bool``)
If ``true``, clang-format detects whether function calls and
definitions are formatted with one parameter per line.
Each call can be bin-packed, one-per-line or inconclusive. If it is
inconclusive, e.g. completely on one line, but a decision needs to be
made, clang-format analyzes whether there are other bin-packed cases in
the input file and act accordingly.
NOTE: This is an experimental flag, that might go away or be renamed. Do
not use this in config files, etc. Use at your own risk.
**FixNamespaceComments** (``bool``)
If ``true``, clang-format adds missing namespace end comments and
fixes invalid existing ones.
.. code-block:: c++
true: false:
namespace a { vs. namespace a {
foo(); foo();
} // namespace a }
**ForEachMacros** (``std::vector<std::string>``)
A vector of macros that should be interpreted as foreach loops
instead of as function calls.
These are expected to be macros of the form:
.. code-block:: c++
FOREACH(<variable-declaration>, ...)
<loop-body>
In the .clang-format configuration file, this can be configured like:
.. code-block:: yaml
ForEachMacros: ['RANGES_FOR', 'FOREACH']
For example: BOOST_FOREACH.
**IncludeBlocks** (``IncludeBlocksStyle``)
Dependent on the value, multiple ``#include`` blocks can be sorted
as one and divided based on category.
Possible values:
* ``IBS_Preserve`` (in configuration: ``Preserve``)
Sort each ``#include`` block separately.
.. code-block:: c++
#include "b.h" into #include "b.h"
#include <lib/main.h> #include "a.h"
#include "a.h" #include <lib/main.h>
* ``IBS_Merge`` (in configuration: ``Merge``)
Merge multiple ``#include`` blocks together and sort as one.
.. code-block:: c++
#include "b.h" into #include "a.h"
#include "b.h"
#include <lib/main.h> #include <lib/main.h>
#include "a.h"
* ``IBS_Regroup`` (in configuration: ``Regroup``)
Merge multiple ``#include`` blocks together and sort as one.
Then split into groups based on category priority. See
``IncludeCategories``.
.. code-block:: c++
#include "b.h" into #include "a.h"
#include "b.h"
#include <lib/main.h>
#include "a.h" #include <lib/main.h>
**IncludeCategories** (``std::vector<IncludeCategory>``)
Regular expressions denoting the different ``#include`` categories
used for ordering ``#includes``.
`POSIX extended
<https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap09.html>`_
regular expressions are supported.
These regular expressions are matched against the filename of an include
(including the <> or "") in order. The value belonging to the first
matching regular expression is assigned and ``#includes`` are sorted first
according to increasing category number and then alphabetically within
each category.
If none of the regular expressions match, INT_MAX is assigned as
category. The main header for a source file automatically gets category 0.
so that it is generally kept at the beginning of the ``#includes``
(https://llvm.org/docs/CodingStandards.html#include-style). However, you
can also assign negative priorities if you have certain headers that
always need to be first.
There is a third and optional field ``SortPriority`` which can used while
``IncludeBloks = IBS_Regroup`` to define the priority in which ``#includes``
should be ordered, and value of ``Priority`` defines the order of
``#include blocks`` and also enables to group ``#includes`` of different
priority for order.``SortPriority`` is set to the value of ``Priority``
as default if it is not assigned.
To configure this in the .clang-format file, use:
.. code-block:: yaml
IncludeCategories:
- Regex: '^"(llvm|llvm-c|clang|clang-c)/'
Priority: 2
SortPriority: 2
- Regex: '^(<|"(gtest|gmock|isl|json)/)'
Priority: 3
- Regex: '<[[:alnum:].]+>'
Priority: 4
- Regex: '.*'
Priority: 1
SortPriority: 0
**IncludeIsMainRegex** (``std::string``)
Specify a regular expression of suffixes that are allowed in the
file-to-main-include mapping.
When guessing whether a #include is the "main" include (to assign
category 0, see above), use this regex of allowed suffixes to the header
stem. A partial match is done, so that:
- "" means "arbitrary suffix"
- "$" means "no suffix"
For example, if configured to "(_test)?$", then a header a.h would be seen
as the "main" include in both a.cc and a_test.cc.
**IncludeIsMainSourceRegex** (``std::string``)
Specify a regular expression for files being formatted
that are allowed to be considered "main" in the
file-to-main-include mapping.
By default, clang-format considers files as "main" only when they end
with: ``.c``, ``.cc``, ``.cpp``, ``.c++``, ``.cxx``, ``.m`` or ``.mm``
extensions.
For these files a guessing of "main" include takes place
(to assign category 0, see above). This config option allows for
additional suffixes and extensions for files to be considered as "main".
For example, if this option is configured to ``(Impl\.hpp)$``,
then a file ``ClassImpl.hpp`` is considered "main" (in addition to
``Class.c``, ``Class.cc``, ``Class.cpp`` and so on) and "main
include file" logic will be executed (with *IncludeIsMainRegex* setting
also being respected in later phase). Without this option set,
``ClassImpl.hpp`` would not have the main include file put on top
before any other include.
**IndentCaseBlocks** (``bool``)
Indent case label blocks one level from the case label.
When ``false``, the block following the case label uses the same
indentation level as for the case label, treating the case label the same
as an if-statement.
When ``true``, the block gets indented as a scope block.
.. code-block:: c++
false: true:
switch (fool) { vs. switch (fool) {
case 1: { case 1:
bar(); {
} break; bar();
default: { }
plop(); break;
} default:
} {
plop();
}
}
**IndentCaseLabels** (``bool``)
Indent case labels one level from the switch statement.
When ``false``, use the same indentation level as for the switch
statement. Switch statement body is always indented one level more than
case labels (except the first block following the case label, which
itself indents the code - unless IndentCaseBlocks is enabled).
.. code-block:: c++
false: true:
switch (fool) { vs. switch (fool) {
case 1: case 1:
bar(); bar();
break; break;
default: default:
plop(); plop();
} }
**IndentExternBlock** (``IndentExternBlockStyle``)
IndentExternBlockStyle is the type of indenting of extern blocks.
Possible values:
* ``IEBS_AfterExternBlock`` (in configuration: ``AfterExternBlock``)
Backwards compatible with AfterExternBlock's indenting.
.. code-block:: c++
IndentExternBlock: AfterExternBlock
BraceWrapping.AfterExternBlock: true
extern "C"
{
void foo();
}
.. code-block:: c++
IndentExternBlock: AfterExternBlock
BraceWrapping.AfterExternBlock: false
extern "C" {
void foo();
}
* ``IEBS_NoIndent`` (in configuration: ``NoIndent``)
Does not indent extern blocks.
.. code-block:: c++
extern "C" {
void foo();
}
* ``IEBS_Indent`` (in configuration: ``Indent``)
Indents extern blocks.
.. code-block:: c++
extern "C" {
void foo();
}
**IndentGotoLabels** (``bool``)
Indent goto labels.
When ``false``, goto labels are flushed left.
.. code-block:: c++
true: false:
int f() { vs. int f() {
if (foo()) { if (foo()) {
label1: label1:
bar(); bar();
} }
label2: label2:
return 1; return 1;
} }
clang-format: Add preprocessor directive indentation Summary: This is an implementation for [bug 17362](https://bugs.llvm.org/attachment.cgi?bugid=17362) which adds support for indenting preprocessor statements inside if/ifdef/endif. This takes previous work from fmauch (https://github.com/fmauch/clang/tree/preprocessor_indent) and makes it into a full feature. The context of this patch is that I'm a VMware intern, and I implemented this because VMware needs the feature. As such, some decisions were made based on what VMware wants, and I would appreciate suggestions on expanding this if necessary to use-cases other people may want. This adds a new enum config option, `IndentPPDirectives`. Values are: * `PPDIS_None` (in config: `None`): ``` #if FOO #if BAR #include <foo> #endif #endif ``` * `PPDIS_AfterHash` (in config: `AfterHash`): ``` #if FOO # if BAR # include <foo> # endif #endif ``` This is meant to work whether spaces or tabs are used for indentation. Preprocessor indentation is independent of indentation for non-preprocessor lines. Preprocessor indentation also attempts to ignore include guards with the checks: 1. Include guards cover the entire file 2. Include guards don't have `#else` 3. Include guards begin with ``` #ifndef <var> #define <var> ``` This patch allows `UnwrappedLineParser::PPBranchLevel` to be decremented to -1 (the initial value is -1) so the variable can be used for indent tracking. Defects: * This patch does not handle the case where there's code between the `#ifndef` and `#define` but all other conditions hold. This is because when the #define line is parsed, `UnwrappedLineParser::Lines` doesn't hold the previous code line yet, so we can't detect it. This is out of the scope of this patch. * This patch does not handle cases where legitimate lines may be outside an include guard. Examples are `#pragma once` and `#pragma GCC diagnostic`, or anything else that does not change the meaning of the file if it's included multiple times. * This does not detect when there is a single non-preprocessor line in front of an include-guard-like structure where other conditions hold because `ScopedLineState` hides the line. * Preprocessor indentation throws off `TokenAnnotator::setCommentLineLevels` so the indentation of comments immediately before indented preprocessor lines is toggled on each run. Fixing this issue appears to be a major change and too much complexity for this patch. Contributed by @euhlmann!

clang-format: Add preprocessor directive indentation Summary: This is an implementation for [bug 17362](https://bugs.llvm.org/attachment.cgi?bugid=17362) which adds support for indenting preprocessor statements inside if/ifdef/endif. This takes previous work from fmauch (https://github.com/fmauch/clang/tree/preprocessor_indent) and makes it into a full feature. The context of this patch is that I'm a VMware intern, and I implemented this because VMware needs the feature. As such, some decisions were made based on what VMware wants, and I would appreciate suggestions on expanding this if necessary to use-cases other people may want. This adds a new enum config option, `IndentPPDirectives`. Values are: * `PPDIS_None` (in config: `None`): ``` #if FOO #if BAR #include <foo> #endif #endif ``` * `PPDIS_AfterHash` (in config: `AfterHash`): ``` #if FOO # if BAR # include <foo> # endif #endif ``` This is meant to work whether spaces or tabs are used for indentation. Preprocessor indentation is independent of indentation for non-preprocessor lines. Preprocessor indentation also attempts to ignore include guards with the checks: 1. Include guards cover the entire file 2. Include guards don't have `#else` 3. Include guards begin with ``` #ifndef <var> #define <var> ``` This patch allows `UnwrappedLineParser::PPBranchLevel` to be decremented to -1 (the initial value is -1) so the variable can be used for indent tracking. Defects: * This patch does not handle the case where there's code between the `#ifndef` and `#define` but all other conditions hold. This is because when the #define line is parsed, `UnwrappedLineParser::Lines` doesn't hold the previous code line yet, so we can't detect it. This is out of the scope of this patch. * This patch does not handle cases where legitimate lines may be outside an include guard. Examples are `#pragma once` and `#pragma GCC diagnostic`, or anything else that does not change the meaning of the file if it's included multiple times. * This does not detect when there is a single non-preprocessor line in front of an include-guard-like structure where other conditions hold because `ScopedLineState` hides the line. * Preprocessor indentation throws off `TokenAnnotator::setCommentLineLevels` so the indentation of comments immediately before indented preprocessor lines is toggled on each run.

2017-08-30 22:34:57 +08:00
**IndentWidth** (``unsigned``)
The number of columns to use for indentation.
.. code-block:: c++
IndentWidth: 3
void f() {
someFunction();
if (true, false) {
f();
}
}
**IndentWrappedFunctionNames** (``bool``)
Indent if a function definition or declaration is wrapped after the
type.
.. code-block:: c++
true:
LoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongReturnType
LoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongFunctionDeclaration();
false:
LoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongReturnType
LoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongFunctionDeclaration();
**InsertTrailingCommas** (``TrailingCommaStyle``)
If set to ``TCS_Wrapped`` will insert trailing commas in container
literals (arrays and objects) that wrap across multiple lines.
It is currently only available for JavaScript
and disabled by default ``TCS_None``.
``InsertTrailingCommas`` cannot be used together with ``BinPackArguments``
as inserting the comma disables bin-packing.
.. code-block:: c++
TSC_Wrapped:
const someArray = [
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,
// ^ inserted
]
Possible values:
* ``TCS_None`` (in configuration: ``None``)
Do not insert trailing commas.
* ``TCS_Wrapped`` (in configuration: ``Wrapped``)
Insert trailing commas in container literals that were wrapped over
multiple lines. Note that this is conceptually incompatible with
bin-packing, because the trailing comma is used as an indicator
that a container should be formatted one-per-line (i.e. not bin-packed).
So inserting a trailing comma counteracts bin-packing.
**JavaImportGroups** (``std::vector<std::string>``)
A vector of prefixes ordered by the desired groups for Java imports.
Each group is separated by a newline. Static imports will also follow the
same grouping convention above all non-static imports. One group's prefix
can be a subset of another - the longest prefix is always matched. Within
a group, the imports are ordered lexicographically.
In the .clang-format configuration file, this can be configured like
in the following yaml example. This will result in imports being
formatted as in the Java example below.
.. code-block:: yaml
JavaImportGroups: ['com.example', 'com', 'org']
.. code-block:: java
import static com.example.function1;
import static com.test.function2;
import static org.example.function3;
import com.example.ClassA;
import com.example.Test;
import com.example.a.ClassB;
import com.test.ClassC;
import org.example.ClassD;
**JavaScriptQuotes** (``JavaScriptQuoteStyle``)
The JavaScriptQuoteStyle to use for JavaScript strings.
Possible values:
* ``JSQS_Leave`` (in configuration: ``Leave``)
Leave string quotes as they are.
.. code-block:: js
string1 = "foo";
string2 = 'bar';
* ``JSQS_Single`` (in configuration: ``Single``)
Always use single quotes.
.. code-block:: js
string1 = 'foo';
string2 = 'bar';
* ``JSQS_Double`` (in configuration: ``Double``)
Always use double quotes.
.. code-block:: js
string1 = "foo";
string2 = "bar";
**JavaScriptWrapImports** (``bool``)
Whether to wrap JavaScript import/export statements.
.. code-block:: js
true:
import {
VeryLongImportsAreAnnoying,
VeryLongImportsAreAnnoying,
VeryLongImportsAreAnnoying,
} from 'some/module.js'
false:
import {VeryLongImportsAreAnnoying, VeryLongImportsAreAnnoying, VeryLongImportsAreAnnoying,} from "some/module.js"
**KeepEmptyLinesAtTheStartOfBlocks** (``bool``)
If true, the empty line at the start of blocks is kept.
.. code-block:: c++
true: false:
if (foo) { vs. if (foo) {
bar();
bar(); }
}
**Language** (``LanguageKind``)
Language, this format style is targeted at.
Possible values:
* ``LK_None`` (in configuration: ``None``)
Do not use.
* ``LK_Cpp`` (in configuration: ``Cpp``)
Should be used for C, C++.
[clang-format] Add basic support for formatting C# files Summary: This revision adds basic support for formatting C# files with clang-format, I know the barrier to entry is high here so I'm sending this revision in to test the water as to whether this might be something we'd consider landing. Tracking in Bugzilla as: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40850 Justification: C# code just looks ugly in comparison to the C++ code in our source tree which is clang-formatted. I've struggled with Visual Studio reformatting to get a clean and consistent style, I want to format our C# code on saving like I do now for C++ and i want it to have the same style as defined in our .clang-format file, so it consistent as it can be with C++. (Braces/Breaking/Spaces/Indent etc..) Using clang format without this patch leaves the code in a bad state, sometimes when the BreakStringLiterals is set, it fails to compile. Mostly the C# is similar to Java, except instead of JavaAnnotations I try to reuse the TT_AttributeSquare. Almost the most valuable portion is to have a new Language in order to partition the configuration for C# within a common .clang-format file, with the auto detection on the .cs extension. But there are other C# specific styles that could be added later if this is accepted. in particular how `{ set;get }` is formatted.

Controls bin-packing Objective-C protocol conformance list
items into as few lines as possible when they go over ``ColumnLimit``.
If ``Auto`` (the default), delegates to the value in
``BinPackParameters``. If that is ``true``, bin-packs Objective-C
protocol conformance list items into as few lines as possible
whenever they go over ``ColumnLimit``.
If ``Always``, always bin-packs Objective-C protocol conformance
list items into as few lines as possible whenever they go over
``ColumnLimit``.

**RawStringFormats** (``std::vector<RawStringFormat>``)
Defines hints for detecting supported languages code blocks in raw
strings.
A raw string with a matching delimiter or a matching enclosing function
name will be reformatted assuming the specified language based on the
style for that language defined in the .clang-format file. If no style has
been defined in the .clang-format file for the specific language, a
predefined style given by 'BasedOnStyle' is used. If 'BasedOnStyle' is not
found, the formatting is based on llvm style. A matching delimiter takes
precedence over a matching enclosing function name for determining the
language of the raw string contents.
If a canonical delimiter is specified, occurrences of other delimiters for
the same language will be updated to the canonical if possible.
There should be at most one specification per language and each delimiter
and enclosing function should not occur in multiple specifications.
To configure this in the .clang-format file, use:
.. code-block:: yaml
RawStringFormats:
- Language: TextProto
Delimiters:
- 'pb'
- 'proto'
EnclosingFunctions:
- 'PARSE_TEXT_PROTO'
BasedOnStyle: google
- Language: Cpp
Delimiters:
- 'cc'
- 'cpp'
BasedOnStyle: llvm
CanonicalDelimiter: 'cc'
**ReflowComments** (``bool``)

/* second veryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryLongComment with plenty of information */
true:
// veryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryLongComment with plenty of
// information
/* second veryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryVeryLongComment with plenty of
* information */
**SortIncludes** (``bool``)
If ``true``, clang-format will sort ``#includes``.

false: true:
#include "b.h" vs. #include "a.h"
#include "a.h" #include "b.h"
**SortUsingDeclarations** (``bool``)
If ``true``, clang-format will sort using declarations.
The order of using declarations is defined as follows:
Split the strings by "::" and discard any initial empty strings. The last
element of each list is a non-namespace name; all others are namespace
names. Sort the lists of names lexicographically, where the sort order of
individual names is that all non-namespace names come before all namespace
names, and within those groups, names are in case-insensitive
lexicographic order.
.. code-block:: c++
false: true:
using std::cout; vs. using std::cin;
using std::cin; using std::cout;

}
}
* ``SBPO_ControlStatementsExceptForEachMacros`` (in configuration: ``ControlStatementsExceptForEachMacros``)
Same as ``SBPO_ControlStatements`` except this option doesn't apply to
ForEach macros. This is useful in projects where ForEach macros are
treated as function calls instead of control statements.
.. code-block:: c++
void f() {
Q_FOREACH(...) {
f();
}
}
* ``SBPO_NonEmptyParentheses`` (in configuration: ``NonEmptyParentheses``)
Put a space before opening parentheses only if the parentheses are not
empty i.e. '()'

if (true) {
f();
g (x, y, z);
}
}
* ``SBPO_Always`` (in configuration: ``Always``)

if (true) { if (true) {
f( ); f();
} }
} }
**SpacesBeforeTrailingComments** (``unsigned``)
The number of spaces before trailing line comments
(``//`` - comments).
This does not affect trailing block comments (``/*`` - comments) as
those commonly have different usage patterns and a number of special
cases.

**Standard** (``LanguageStandard``)
Parse and format C++ constructs compatible with this standard.
[ClangFormat] Future-proof Standard option, allow floating or pinning to arbitrary lang version Summary: The historical context: - clang-format was written when C++11 was current, and the main language-version concern was >> vs > > template-closers. An option was added to allow selection of the 03/11 behavior, or auto-detection. - there was no option to choose simply "latest standard" so anyone who didn't ever want 03 behavior or auto-detection specified Cpp11. - In r185149 this option started to affect lexer mode. - no options were added to cover c++14, as parsing/formatting didn't change that much. The usage of Cpp11 to mean "latest" became codified e.g. in r206263 - c++17 added some new constructs. These were mostly backwards-compatible and so not used in old programs, so having no way to turn them off was OK. - c++20 added some new constructs and keywords (e.g. co_*) that changed the meaning of existing programs, and people started to complain that the c++20 parsing couldn't be turned off. New plan: - Default ('Auto') behavior remains unchanged: parse as latest, format template-closers based on input. - Add new 'Latest' option that more clearly expresses the intent "use modern features" that many projects have chosen for their .clang-format files. - Allow pinning to *any* language version, using the same name as clang -std: c++03, c++11, c++14 etc. These set precise lexer options, and any clang-format code depending on these can use a >= check. - For backwards compatibility, `Cpp11` is an alias for `Latest`, not `c++11`. This matches the historical documented semantics of this option. This spelling (and `Cpp03`) are deprecated.

New plan: - Default ('Auto') behavior remains unchanged: parse as latest, format template-closers based on input. - Add new 'Latest' option that more clearly expresses the intent "use modern features" that many projects have chosen for their .clang-format files. - Allow pinning to *any* language version, using the same name as clang -std: c++03, c++11, c++14 etc. These set precise lexer options, and any clang-format code depending on these can use a >= check. - For backwards compatibility, `Cpp11` is an alias for `Latest`, not `c++11`. This matches the historical documented semantics of this option. This spelling (and `Cpp03`) are deprecated.

* ``LS_Latest`` (in configuration: ``Latest``)

* ``LS_Auto`` (in configuration: ``Auto``)
Automatic detection based on the input.
**StatementMacros** (``std::vector<std::string>``)
A vector of macros that should be interpreted as complete
statements.
Typical macros are expressions, and require a semi-colon to be
added; sometimes this is not the case, and this allows to make
clang-format aware of such cases.
For example: Q_UNUSED
**TabWidth** (``unsigned``)
The number of columns used for tab stops.
**TypenameMacros** (``std::vector<std::string>``)
A vector of macros that should be interpreted as type declarations
instead of as function calls.
These are expected to be macros of the form:
.. code-block:: c++
STACK_OF(...)
In the .clang-format configuration file, this can be configured like:
.. code-block:: yaml
TypenameMacros: ['STACK_OF', 'LIST']
For example: OpenSSL STACK_OF, BSD LIST_ENTRY.
**UseCRLF** (``bool``)
Use ``\r\n`` instead of ``\n`` for line breaks.
Also used as fallback if ``DeriveLineEnding`` is true.
**UseTab** (``UseTabStyle``)
The way to use tab characters in the resulting file.
Possible values:
* ``UT_Never`` (in configuration: ``Never``)
Never use tab.
* ``UT_ForIndentation`` (in configuration: ``ForIndentation``)
Use tabs only for indentation.
* ``UT_ForContinuationAndIndentation`` (in configuration: ``ForContinuationAndIndentation``)
Fill all leading whitespace with tabs, and use spaces for alignment that
appears within a line (e.g. consecutive assignments and declarations).
* ``UT_AlignWithSpaces`` (in configuration: ``AlignWithSpaces``)
Use tabs for line continuation and indentation, and spaces for
alignment.
* ``UT_Always`` (in configuration: ``Always``)
Use tabs whenever we need to fill whitespace that spans at least from
one tab stop to the next one.
**WhitespaceSensitiveMacros** (``std::vector<std::string>``)
A vector of macros which are whitespace-sensitive and should not
be touched.
These are expected to be macros of the form:
.. code-block:: c++
STRINGIZE(...)
In the .clang-format configuration file, this can be configured like:
.. code-block:: yaml
WhitespaceSensitiveMacros: ['STRINGIZE', 'PP_STRINGIZE']
For example: BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE
.. END_FORMAT_STYLE_OPTIONS
Adding additional style options
===============================
Each additional style option adds costs to the clang-format project. Some of
these costs affect the clang-format development itself, as we need to make
sure that any given combination of options work and that new features don't
break any of the existing options in any way. There are also costs for end users
as options become less discoverable and people have to think about and make a
decision on options they don't really care about.
The goal of the clang-format project is more on the side of supporting a
limited set of styles really well as opposed to supporting every single style
used by a codebase somewhere in the wild. Of course, we do want to support all
major projects and thus have established the following bar for adding style
options. Each new style option must ..
* be used in a project of significant size (have dozens of contributors)
* have a publicly accessible style guide
* have a person willing to contribute and maintain patches
Examples
========
A style similar to the `Linux Kernel style
<https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/CodingStyle>`_:
.. code-block:: yaml
BasedOnStyle: LLVM
IndentWidth: 8
UseTab: Always
BreakBeforeBraces: Linux
AllowShortIfStatementsOnASingleLine: false
IndentCaseLabels: false
The result is (imagine that tabs are used for indentation here):
.. code-block:: c++
void test()
{
switch (x) {
case 0:
case 1:
do_something();
break;
case 2:
do_something_else();
break;
default:
break;
}
if (condition)
do_something_completely_different();
if (x == y) {
q();
} else if (x > y) {
w();
} else {
r();
}
}
A style similar to the default Visual Studio formatting style:
.. code-block:: yaml
UseTab: Never
IndentWidth: 4
BreakBeforeBraces: Allman
AllowShortIfStatementsOnASingleLine: false
IndentCaseLabels: false
ColumnLimit: 0
The result is:
.. code-block:: c++
void test()
{
switch (suffix)
{
case 0:
case 1:
do_something();
break;
case 2:
do_something_else();
break;
default:
break;
}
if (condition)
do_somthing_completely_different();
if (x == y)
{
q();
}
else if (x > y)
{
w();
}
else
{
r();
}
}
