Clang bugs with known workarounds

  • Sometimes diagnostic message have one empty SourceRange, which breaks SourceLocation-based euristic. Example:

  1. include <vector>

int main() {

std::vector<> a;
return 0;

} CXPrettyPrinter reports: CXDiagnostic: {

'error: too few template arguments for class template 'vector

Clang bugs

Links to reported bugs will be attached in future

  • inside lambda, clang doesn't include mutable (non-const) methods of current class even if 'this' was captured by lambda

Bug: http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=15085 See example, completion requested in point marked with '#' sign

void UnitConsumer::visitChildren() {

visitChildren(cursor, [this](const CXCursor &cursor, const CXCursor & /*parent*/) {
if (cursor.kind == CXCursor_FieldDecl) {
#
}
});

}

  • Clang does not add virtual functions to proposals list

class Base { public:

virtual void overrideMe(int a);

};

class Derived : public Base { public:

void #

};

class Foo { public:

void declarable(int a, float b);

};

void Foo::declarable(int a, float b) {

if (a != 1)
Foo::declarable(1, 2.0);

}

Poor diagnostic for such code if C11 disabled enum class EnumScoped { };

  • clang does not add classes to completion proposals when completing 'foreach'
  • when declaring variable, variable itself proposed with highest priority. It's error.
  • Macro completions not added after class keyword

class CLANG_EXPORT CodeCompletionResult { };

class Class {

int a;
int c;

public:

Class(int b) try : a(b), c(new int)
{
}
catch (…)
{
// no "delete" proposed
}

};

Completion with nested names lookup not performed for comparison with enum value

if (lexer.tokenKind() == Token::LeftBrace) {
}

  • Value types completions added where thay shouldn't be

QStringList createClangOptions(CPlusPlus::ProjectFile::Kind language,

CPlusPlus::ProjectPart::CXXExtensions extensions,
CPlusPlus::ProjectPart::,
CPlusPlus::ProjectPart::QtVersion qtVersion,
const QList<QByteArray> &defines,
const QStringList &includePaths,
const QStringList &frameworkPaths);

  • C+11 'override' pseudo-keyword breaks clang_annotateTokens()

bool init() override;

  • Poor completion context recognition in template params

std::vector<#> myVector;

  • Clang doesn't add Informative completion chunk to macro. It better to add macro definition text to informative.

  1. define MACRO std::min(left, right)

// Completion proposal "MACRO" doesn't have chunk of kind Informative with text "std::min(left, right)"

  • Completion stops after asterisk:

ButtonsFactory ButtonsFactory::ms_instance = 0; ButtonsFactory*// completion requested here
