# Compiler plugins ## Overview This directory contains code for compiler plugins. These are used to perform additional actions during compilation (such as additional warnings) and also to perform mass code refactoring. Currently only the Clang compiler is supported . ## Usage Compiler plugins are enabled automatically by `--enable-dbgutil` if Clang headers are found or explicitly using `--enable-compiler-plugins`. ## Functionality There are two kinds of plugin actions: - compile checks - these are run during normal compilation - rewriters - these must be run manually and modify source files Each source has a comment saying whether it's compile check or a rewriter and description of functionality. ### Compile Checks Used during normal compilation to perform additional checks. All warnings and errors are marked '[loplugin]' in the message. ### Rewriters Rewriters analyse and possibly modify given source files. Usage: `make COMPILER_PLUGIN_TOOL=` Additional optional make arguments: - it is possible to also pass `FORCE_COMPILE=all` to make to trigger rebuild of all source files, even those that are up to date. FORCE_COMPILE takes a list of gbuild targets specifying where to run the rewriter ('all' means everything, '-' prepended means to not enable, '/' appended means everything in the directory; there is no ordering, more specific overrides more general, and disabling takes precedence). Example: FORCE_COMPILE="all -sw/ -Library_sc" - `UPDATE_FILES=` - limits which modified files will be actually written back with the changes - `mainfile` - only the main `.cxx` file will be modified (default) - `all` - all source files involved will be modified (possibly even header files from other LO modules), 3rd party header files are however never modified - `` - only files in the given LO module (toplevel directory) will be modified (including headers) Modifications will be written directly to the source files. Some rewriter plugins are dual-mode and can also be used in a non-rewriting mode in which they emit warnings for problematic code that they would otherwise automatically rewrite. When any rewriter is enabled explicitly via `make COMPILER_PLUGIN_TOOL=` it works in rewriting mode (and all other plugins are disabled), but when no rewriter is explicitly enabled (i.e., just `make`), all dual-mode rewriters are enabled in non-rewriting mode (along with all non-rewriter plugins; and all non--dual-mode plugins are disabled). The typical process to use such a dual-mode rewriter X in rewriting mode is make COMPILER_PLUGIN_WARNINGS_ONLY=X \ && make COMPILER_PLUGIN_TOOL=X FORCE_COMPILE=all UPDATE_FILES=all which first generates a full build without failing due to warnings from plugin X in non-rewriting mode (in case of `--enable-werror`) and then repeats the build in rewriting mode (during which no object files are generate). ## Code Documentation / HowTos /collabora/co-24.04.6 LibreOffice 核心代码仓库文档基金会
