.. title:: clang-tidy - modernize-avoid-c-arrays
modernize-avoid-c-arrays
========================
`cppcoreguidelines-avoid-c-arrays` redirects here as an alias for this check.
`hicpp-avoid-c-arrays` redirects here as an alias for this check.
Finds C-style array types and recommend to use ``std::array<>`` /
``std::vector<>``. All types of C arrays are diagnosed.
However, fix-it are potentially dangerous in header files and are therefore not
emitted right now.
.. code:: c++
int a[] = {1, 2}; // warning: do not declare C-style arrays, use std::array<> instead
int b[1]; // warning: do not declare C-style arrays, use std::array<> instead
void foo() {
int c[b[0]]; // warning: do not declare C VLA arrays, use std::vector<> instead
}
template <typename T, int Size>
class array {
T d[Size]; // warning: do not declare C-style arrays, use std::array<> instead
int e[1]; // warning: do not declare C-style arrays, use std::array<> instead
};
array<int[4], 2> d; // warning: do not declare C-style arrays, use std::array<> instead
using k = int[4]; // warning: do not declare C-style arrays, use std::array<> instead
However, the ``extern "C"`` code is ignored, since it is common to share
such headers between C code, and C++ code.
.. code:: c++
// Some header
extern "C" {
int f[] = {1, 2}; // not diagnosed
int j[1]; // not diagnosed
inline void bar() {
{
int j[j[0]]; // not diagnosed
}
}
}
