ament_cpplint.cpplint module

Does google-lint on c++ files.

The goal of this script is to identify places in the code that may be in non-compliance with google style. It does not attempt to fix up these problems – the point is to educate. It does also not attempt to find all problems, or to ensure that everything it does find is legitimately a problem.

In particular, we can get very confused by /* and // inside strings! We do a small hack, which is to ignore //’s with “‘s after them on the same line, but it is far from perfect (in either direction).

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckAltTokens(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Check alternative keywords being used in boolean expressions.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckBraces(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Looks for misplaced braces (e.g. at the end of line).

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

Checks for horizontal spacing near commas.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. nesting_state: A NestingState instance which maintains information about

the current stack of nested blocks being parsed.

error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckCStyleCast(filename, clean_lines, linenum, cast_type, pattern, error)

Checks for a C-style cast by looking for the pattern.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. cast_type: The string for the C++ cast to recommend. This is either

reinterpret_cast, static_cast, or const_cast, depending.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckCheck(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Checks the use of CHECK and EXPECT macros.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckCommaSpacing(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckEmptyBlockBody(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Look for empty loop/conditional body with only a single semicolon.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForBadCharacters(filename, lines, error)

Logs an error for each line containing bad characters.

Two kinds of bad characters:

1. Unicode replacement characters: These indicate that either the file contained invalid UTF-8 (likely) or Unicode replacement characters (which it shouldn’t). Note that it’s possible for this to throw off line numbering if the invalid UTF-8 occurred adjacent to a newline.

  1. NUL bytes. These are problematic for some tools.

Args:

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForCopyright(filename, lines, error)

Logs an error if no Copyright message appears at the top of the file.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForFunctionLengths(filename, clean_lines, linenum, function_state, error)

Reports for long function bodies.

For an overview why this is done, see: https://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cppguide.xml#Write_Short_Functions

Uses a simplistic algorithm assuming other style guidelines (especially spacing) are followed. Only checks unindented functions, so class members are unchecked. Trivial bodies are unchecked, so constructors with huge initializer lists may be missed. Blank/comment lines are not counted so as to avoid encouraging the removal of vertical space and comments just to get through a lint check. NOLINT on the last line of a function disables this check.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. function_state: Current function name and lines in body so far. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForHeaderGuard(filename, clean_lines, error)

Checks that the file contains a header guard.

Logs an error if no #ifndef header guard is present. For other headers, checks that the full pathname is used.

Args:

filename: The name of the C++ header file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForIncludeWhatYouUse(filename, clean_lines, include_state, error, io=<module 'codecs' from '/usr/lib/python3.10/codecs.py'>)

Reports for missing stl includes.

This function will output warnings to make sure you are including the headers necessary for the stl containers and functions that you use. We only give one reason to include a header. For example, if you use both equal_to<> and less<> in a .h file, only one (the latter in the file) of these will be reported as a reason to include the <functional>.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. include_state: An _IncludeState instance. error: The function to call with any errors found. io: The IO factory to use to read the header file. Provided for unittest

injection.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForMultilineCommentsAndStrings(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Logs an error if we see /* … */ or “…” that extend past one line.

/* … */ comments are legit inside macros, for one line. Otherwise, we prefer // comments, so it’s ok to warn about the other. Likewise, it’s ok for strings to extend across multiple lines, as long as a line continuation character (backslash) terminates each line. Although not currently prohibited by the C++ style guide, it’s ugly and unnecessary. We don’t do well with either in this lint program, so we warn about both.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForNamespaceIndentation(filename, nesting_state, clean_lines, line, error)
ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForNewlineAtEOF(filename, lines, error)

Logs an error if there is no newline char at the end of the file.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. lines: An array of strings, each representing a line of the file. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForNonConstReference(filename, clean_lines, linenum, nesting_state, error)

Check for non-const references.

Separate from CheckLanguage since it scans backwards from current line, instead of scanning forward.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. nesting_state: A NestingState instance which maintains information about

the current stack of nested blocks being parsed.

error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckForNonStandardConstructs(filename, clean_lines, linenum, nesting_state, error)

Logs an error if we see certain non-ANSI constructs ignored by gcc-2.

Complain about several constructs which gcc-2 accepts, but which are not standard C++. Warning about these in lint is one way to ease the transition to new compilers. - put storage class first (e.g. “static const” instead of “const static”). - “%lld” instead of %qd” in printf-type functions. - “%1$d” is non-standard in printf-type functions. - “%” is an undefined character escape sequence. - text after #endif is not allowed. - invalid inner-style forward declaration. - >? and <? operators, and their >?= and <?= cousins.

Additionally, check for constructor/destructor style violations and reference members, as it is very convenient to do so while checking for gcc-2 compliance.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. nesting_state: A NestingState instance which maintains information about

the current stack of nested blocks being parsed.

filename, line number, error level, and message

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckGlobalStatic(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Check for unsafe global or static objects.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckHeaderFileIncluded(filename, include_state, error)

Logs an error if a source file does not include its header.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckIncludeLine(filename, clean_lines, linenum, include_state, error)

Check rules that are applicable to #include lines.

Strings on #include lines are NOT removed from elided line, to make certain tasks easier. However, to prevent false positives, checks applicable to #include lines in CheckLanguage must be put here.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. include_state: An _IncludeState instance in which the headers are inserted. error: The function to call with any errors found.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CheckInvalidIncrement(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Checks for invalid increment *count++.

For example following function: void increment_counter(int* count) {

*count++;

} is invalid, because it effectively does count++, moving pointer, and should be replaced with ++*count, (*count)++ or *count += 1.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

Checks rules from the ‘C++ language rules’ section of cppguide.html.

Some of these rules are hard to test (function overloading, using uint32 inappropriately), but we do the best we can.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. file_extension: The extension (without the dot) of the filename. include_state: An _IncludeState instance in which the headers are inserted. nesting_state: A NestingState instance which maintains information about

Returns:

list of lines with C++11 raw strings replaced by empty strings.

class ament_cpplint.cpplint.CleansedLines(lines)

Bases: object

Holds 4 copies of all lines with different preprocessing applied to them.

  1. elided member contains lines without strings and comments.

  2. lines member contains lines without comments.

  3. raw_lines member contains all the lines without processing.

  4. lines_without_raw_strings member is same as raw_lines, but with C++11 raw strings removed.

All these members are of <type ‘list’>, and of the same length.

NumLines()

Returns the number of lines represented.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.CloseExpression(clean_lines, linenum, pos)

If input points to ( or { or [ or <, finds the position that closes it.

If lines[linenum][pos] points to a ‘(’ or ‘{’ or ‘[’ or ‘<’, finds the linenum/pos that correspond to the closing of the expression.

TODO(unknown): cpplint spends a fair bit of time matching parentheses. Ideally we would want to index all opening and closing parentheses once and have CloseExpression be just a simple lookup, but due to preprocessor tricks, this is not so easy.

Args:

clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. pos: A position on the line.

Returns:

A tuple (line, linenum, pos) pointer past the closing brace, or (line, len(lines), -1) if we never find a close. Note we ignore strings and comments when matching; and the line we return is the ‘cleansed’ line at linenum.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.Error(filename, linenum, category, confidence, message)

Logs the fact we’ve found a lint error.

We log where the error was found, and also our confidence in the error, that is, how certain we are this is a legitimate style regression, and not a misidentification or a use that’s sometimes justified.

False positives can be suppressed by the use of “cpplint(category)” comments on the offending line. These are parsed into _error_suppressions.

Args:

filename: The name of the file containing the error. linenum: The number of the line containing the error. category: A string used to describe the “category” this bug

falls under: “whitespace”, say, or “runtime”. Categories may have a hierarchy separated by slashes: “whitespace/indent”.

confidence: A number from 1-5 representing a confidence score for

the error, with 5 meaning that we are certain of the problem, and 1 meaning that it could be a legitimate construct.

message: The error message.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.ExpectingFunctionArgs(clean_lines, linenum)

Checks whether where function type arguments are expected.

Args:

clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check.

Returns:

True if the line at ‘linenum’ is inside something that expects arguments of function types.

class ament_cpplint.cpplint.FileInfo(filename)

Bases: object

Provides utility functions for filenames.

FileInfo provides easy access to the components of a file’s path relative to the project root.

BaseName()

File base name - text after the final slash, before the final period.

Extension()

File extension - text following the final period, includes that period.

FullName()

Make Windows paths like Unix.

IsSource()

File has a source file extension.

NoExtension()

File has no source file extension.

RepositoryName()

FullName after removing the local path to the repository.

If we have a real absolute path name here we can try to do something smart: detecting the root of the checkout and truncating /path/to/checkout from the name so that we get header guards that don’t include things like “C:\Documents and Settings\…” or “/home/username/…” in them and thus people on different computers who have checked the source out to different locations won’t see bogus errors.

Split()

Splits the file into the directory, basename, and extension.

For ‘chrome/browser/browser.cc’, Split() would return (‘chrome/browser’, ‘browser’, ‘.cc’)

Returns:

A tuple of (directory, basename, extension).

ament_cpplint.cpplint.FilesBelongToSameModule(filename_cc, filename_h)

Check if these two filenames belong to the same module.

The concept of a ‘module’ here is a as follows: foo.h, foo-inl.h, foo.cc, foo_test.cc and foo_unittest.cc belong to the same ‘module’ if they are in the same directory. some/path/public/xyzzy and some/path/internal/xyzzy are also considered to belong to the same module here.

If the filename_cc contains a longer path than the filename_h, for example, ‘/absolute/path/to/base/sysinfo.cc’, and this file would include ‘base/sysinfo.h’, this function also produces the prefix needed to open the header. This is used by the caller of this function to more robustly open the header file. We don’t have access to the real include paths in this context, so we need this guesswork here.

Known bugs: tools/base/bar.cc and base/bar.h belong to the same module according to this implementation. Because of this, this function gives some false positives. This should be sufficiently rare in practice.

Args:

filename_cc: is the path for the source (e.g. .cc) file filename_h: is the path for the header path

Returns:

Tuple with a bool and a string: bool: True if filename_cc and filename_h belong to the same module. string: the additional prefix needed to open the header file.

ament_cpplint.cpplint.FindCheckMacro(line)

Find the position just after the end of current parenthesized expression.

Args:

line: a CleansedLines line. startpos: start searching at this position. stack: nesting stack at startpos.

Returns:

On finding matching end: (index just after matching end, None) On finding an unclosed expression: (-1, None) Otherwise: (-1, new stack at end of this line)

ament_cpplint.cpplint.FindNextMultiLineCommentEnd(lines, lineix)

We are inside a comment, find the end marker.

Returns:

On finding matching start: (index at matching start, None) On finding an unclosed expression: (-1, None) Otherwise: (-1, new stack at beginning of this line)

Return the most recent non-blank line and its line number.

Args:

clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file contents. linenum: The number of the line to check.

Returns:

A tuple with two elements. The first element is the contents of the last non-blank line before the current line, or the empty string if this is the first non-blank line. The second is the line number of that line, or -1 if this is the first non-blank line.

Check if we are currently one level inside an inline ASM block.

Returns:

True if the top of the stack is a block containing inline ASM.

InClassDeclaration()

Check if we are currently one level inside a class or struct declaration.

Returns:

True if top of the stack is a class/struct, False otherwise.

InExternC()

Check if we are currently one level inside an ‘extern “C”’ block.

Returns:

True if top of the stack is an extern block, False otherwise.

InNamespaceBody()

Check if we are currently one level inside a namespace body.

Returns:

True if top of the stack is a namespace block, False otherwise.

InTemplateArgumentList(clean_lines, linenum, pos)

Check if current position is inside template argument list.

Args:

clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. pos: position just after the suspected template argument.

Returns:

True if (linenum, pos) is inside template arguments.

InnermostClass()

Get class info on the top of the stack.

Returns:

A _ClassInfo object if we are inside a class, or None otherwise.

SeenOpenBrace()

Update(filename, clean_lines, linenum, error)

Update nesting state with current line.

Args:

filename: The name of the current file. clean_lines: A CleansedLines instance containing the file. linenum: The number of the line to check. error: The function to call with any errors found.

UpdatePreprocessor(line)

Update preprocessor stack.

We need to handle preprocessors due to classes like this:

#ifdef SWIG struct ResultDetailsPageElementExtensionPoint { #else struct ResultDetailsPageElementExtensionPoint : public Extension { #endif

We make the following assumptions (good enough for most files): - Preprocessor condition evaluates to true from #if up to first

#else/#elif/#endif.

  • Preprocessor condition evaluates to false from #else/#elif up to #endif. We still perform lint checks on these lines, but these do not affect nesting stack.

Args:

line: current line to check.
