readability-redundant-declaration
|
||
|
=================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Finds redundant variable and function declarations.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code-block:: c++
|
||
|
|
||
|
extern int X;
|
||
|
extern int X;
|
||
|
|
||
|
becomes
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code-block:: c++
|
||
|
|
||
|
extern int X;
|
||
|
|
||
|
Such redundant declarations can be removed without changing program behaviour.
|
||
|
They can for instance be unintentional left overs from previous refactorings
|
||
|
when code has been moved around. Having redundant declarations could in worst
|
||
|
case mean that there are typos in the code that cause bugs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Normally the code can be automatically fixed, :program:`clang-tidy` can remove
|
||
|
the second declaration. However there are 2 cases when you need to fix the code
|
||
|
manually:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* When the declarations are in different header files;
|
||
|
* When multiple variables are declared together.
|
||
|
|
||
|
