================ Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clang-tidy/tool/ClangTidyMain.cpp:392-394 + cl::Option *load_opt = cl::getRegisteredOptions().lookup("load"); + if (load_opt) + load_opt->addCategory(ClangTidyCategory); ---------------- ================ Comment at: clang-tools-extra/docs/clang-tidy/Contributing.rst:421-424 +If you want to develop this out-of-tree, the steps above are the largely same. +External to the clang-tidy build system, put all of the new code into a single +shared library. Build and link it against llvm, while allowing some symbols to +be undefined during linking, almost exactly as you would define a clang plugin. ---------------- I wordsmithed a bit and this should be similar to what you already had. I did remove the "while allowing some symbols to be undefined during linking" bit because I wasn't certain what that was about. ================ Comment at: clang-tools-extra/docs/clang-tidy/Contributing.rst:426-427 + +Then we can run it by passing `-load` to `clang-tidy`, in addition to the name +of our new checks. + ---------------- ================ Comment at: clang-tools-extra/docs/clang-tidy/index.rst:223 + Load the dynamic object ``plugin``. This + object should register new static analyzer or clang-tidy passes. Once loaded, the object + will add new command line options to run ---------------- ================ Comment at: clang-tools-extra/test/clang-tidy/CTTestTidyModule.cpp:24-25 + + //void registerMatchers(ast_matchers::MatchFinder *Finder) override; + //void check(const ast_matchers::MatchFinder::MatchResult &Result) override; + ---------------- Shouldn't these functions be overloaded? We don't need it to be particularly functional, but the plugin should demonstrate that it works and can be run by clang-tidy (not just loaded and listed as a check).
