This is automated checker to make sure a C++ file follows Google's C++ style
|
|
|
|
|
guide (http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cppguide.xml). As it
|
|
|
|
|
heavily relies on regular expressions, cpplint.py won't catch all violations of
|
|
|
|
|
the style guide and will very occasionally report a false positive. There is a
|
|
|
|
|
list of things we currently don't handle very well at the top of cpplint.py,
|
|
|
|
|
and we welcome patches to improve it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The linting tool takes a list of files as input. For full usage instructions,
|
|
|
|
|
please see the output of:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

./cpplint.py --help

Unit tests are provided in cpplint_unittest.py. This file can safely be ignored

by end users who have downloaded this package and only want to run the lint
|
|
|
|
|
tool.
