lh-cpp Options

Contents

Options types

Global options: g:{option-name}

They are best set from the .vimrc;

Local/project-wise options: b:{option-name}

They are best set from a local_vimrc file;

Project-wise options with default: (bg):{option-name}

Their default value can be set in the .vimrc, but its best to set them from a local_vimrc file;

lh-dev options: (bg):[{filetype}__]{option-name}

Option list

(bg):cpp_always_a_destructor_when_there_is_a_pointer_attribute'

Boolean option that enforces the expansion of a destructor in classes that have pointer attributes, even when it isn't required.

Default value: 0 (false)

See:

(bg):cpp_std_flavour and $CXXFLAGS

These options are exploited by C++ flavour decoding functions

The expected values for (bg):cpp_std_flavour are "03", "05" (TR1), "11", "14", or "17". Other values will lead into Unspecified Behaviour.

warning: "98" is not a valid value.

If (bg):cpp_std_flavour is not set, the flavour will be extracted from the -std= option in $CXXFLAGS or else from the CMake $CMAKE_CXXFLAGS option. Valid values are -std=c++98, -std=c++03, -std=c++0x, -std=c++11, -std=c++1y, -std=c++14, -std=c++1z, -std=c++17 (the -std=gnu++xx ones are also handled)

Note: The $CMAKE_CXXFLAGS option is obtained thanks to lh-cmake. BTW, this plugin is not automatically installed with lh-cpp (if you are using a dependencies aware plugin manager like VAM or vim-flavor ; with dependencies unaware plugin managers, you'll will also have to install it as well)

(bg):({ft}_)FunctionPosArg, (bg):({ft}_)FunctionPosition

Determines where the default implementation, for a function not yet defined, should be placed by :GOTOIMPL. We are placed ...

  • 0 -> ... at cpp_FunctionPosArg lines from the end of the file.
  • 1 -> ... at the line after the first occurrence of the pattern cpp_FunctionPosArg. By default, we are placed after: >
/*============*/
/*===[ «» ]===*/
/*============*/

That I use to insert with :BLINES

  • 2 -> ... according the hook (user-defined VimL-function) cpp_FunctionPosArg. By default, we are asked for a title (actually a regex pattern), and placed after:
/*=====================*/
/*===[ {the_title} ]===*/
/*=====================*/

... That I still use to insert with |:BLINES|

  • 3 -> ... nowhere, and nothing is inserted. The insertion must be done manually thanks to :PASTEIMPL .

(bg):ProjectVersion

Version of the project. Can be used in Doxygen comment through API function lh#dox#since().

(bg):({ft}_)ShowDefaultParams, (bg):({ft}_)ShowExplicit, (bg):({ft}_)ShowStatic, (bg):({ft}_)ShowVirtual

Boolean options used by :GOTOIMPL. They tells whether the C++ keywords explicit, static or virtual shall be kept in the empty implementation skeleton generated for a function declaration. Same thing for default parameter values.

Default values to all: 1 (true)

(bg):accessor_comment_get, (bg):accessor_comment_set, (bg):accessor_comment_ref

Strings to customize the comments inserted on :ADDATTRIBUTE.

"%a" will be substituted with the name of the attribute.

(bg):({ft}_)alternateSearchPath

Tells how to alternate between a source file and a header file.

Default value: 'sfr:../source,sfr:../src,sfr:../include,sfr:../inc'

According to alternate.vim documentation:

A path with a prefix of "wdr:" will be treated as relative to the working directory (i.e. the directory where vim was started.) A path prefix of "abs:" will be treated as absolute. No prefix or "sfr:" will result in the path being treated as relative to the source file (see sfPath argument).

A prefix of "reg:" will treat the pathSpec as a regular expression substitution that is applied to the source file path. The format is:

reg:<sep><pattern><sep><subst><sep><flag><sep>
  • <sep> seperator character, we often use one of [/|%#]
  • <pattern> is what you are looking for
  • <subst> is the output pattern
  • <flag> can be g for global replace or empty

EXAMPLE: 'reg:/inc/src/g/' will replace every instance of 'inc' with 'src' in the source file path. It is possible to use match variables so you could do something like:

'reg:|src/\([^/]*\)|inc/\1||'

(see help :substitute, help pattern and help sub-replace-special for more details)

NOTE: a.vim uses , (comma) internally so DON'T use it in your regular expressions or other pathSpecs unless you update the rest of the a.vim code to use some other seperator.mentation:

(bg):({ft}_)begin_end_style

Tells which style to use to generate a couple of calls to begin()/end():

  • "c++98": -> container.begin()
  • "std": -> std::begin(container)
  • "boost": -> boost::begin(container)
  • "adl": -> begin(container)

See: CTRL-X_be, CTRL-X_cbe, CTRL-X_rbe, CTRL-X_crbe, cpp/b-e snippet

(bg):c_menu_name, (bg):c_menu_priority, (bg):cpp_menu_name, (bg):cpp_menu_priority

These options tells where the |menu| for all C and C++ item goes. See :h :menu

(bg):cpp_defaulted

String option.

Default Value: = default

See: API function lh#cpp#snippets#defaulted()

(bg):cpp_defines_to_ignore

Regex (default: none) that specifies which patterns (#define) shall be ignored when parsing the source code to detect the current scope (ns1::..::nsn::cl1::.....cln).

See: API functions

(bg):cpp_deleted

String option.

Default Value: = delete

See: API function lh#cpp#snippets#deleted()

(bg):cpp_noexcept

String format option (for lh#fmt#printf())

Default Value: noexcept%1 in C++11, throw() in C++98

See:

(bg):cpp_noncopyable_class

Policy option that is used to tell how classes are made non-copyable.

  • by inheriting from a dedicated noncopyable class.
{"name": "ITK::NonCopyable", "include": "<itkNoncopyable.h>"}

If the class is known by the type database , there is no need to explicit which file shall be included:

{"name": "boost:noncopyable"}
  • by explictly deleting copy operations (with = delete in C++11, or with declared but undefined private copy operations). This done by setting the option to an empty string.

Default value: {"name": "boost:noncopyable"}

See:

(bg):cpp_explicit_default

Boolean option that forces to explicitly add = default in snippets when C++11 is detected.

Warning: For now, this option has priority over (bg):cpp_noncopyable_class. i.e. deleted copy operations will still appear even if the class inherits from a non-copyable class.

Default value: undefined (=> ask the user)

See:

(bg):cpp_make_ptr

String format option for lh#fmt#printf()).

It tells how pointers are best created. Used only from cpp/clonable-clas.template snippet.

Default Value:

  • C++14: std::make_unique(%3)
  • C++11: std::unique_ptr<%2>(new %2(%3))
  • C++98: std::auto_ptr<%1>(new %2(%3))

See:

(bg):cpp_noexcept

String format option (for lh#fmt#printf())

Default Value: override in C++11, /* override */ in C++98

See:

(bg):cpp_return_ptr_type

String format option for printf() (TODO: migrate to lh#fmt#printf())).

It tells how pointers are best returned from functions. Used only from cpp/clonable-clas.template snippet.

Default Value:

  • C++11: std::unique_ptr<>
  • C++98: std::auto_ptr<>

See:
