clang-format Usage

Usage

Formatting a file:

clang-format -style=file -i <file_to_check>

Formatting several files at once:

find util -iname *.h -o -iname *.cpp | xargs clang-format -style=file -i

-i edits the files in-place.

For editor integration see Automatic Formatting.

Disable Checks

Some code sections like tables may look better when manually formatted.

Exclude a piece of code from automatic formatting with the following comment lines:

// clang-format off
...
code which should stay as it is
...
// clang-format on
