CLANG-RENAME(1)

✨ NAME ✨

clang-rename — the manual page for clang-rename 13, bestie 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the whole vibe. you run it like this, no cap:

USAGE: clang-rename [options] <source0> [... <sourceN>]

then it just... gives you OPTIONS. and there are so many options. we're going through every single one, don't worry 🌸

🎀 Generic Options 🎀

these are the universal besties, every LLVM tool has them:

• --help — shows you all the options you can actually use (and if you want the hidden ones too, hit up --help-hidden 👀)
• --help-list — prints out the list of available options (and yeah, --help-list-hidden exists if you're feeling nosy)
• --version — tells you what version of this program you're running. icon behavior honestly

💖 clang-rename common options 💖

this is the main character section, the whole reason you're here:

• --export-fixes=<filename> — drops all the suggested fixes into a YAML file with this name. your edits, but written down 📝
• --extra-arg=<string> — one more argument, appended to the end of the compiler command line
• --extra-arg-before=<string> — one more argument, but prepended to the front of the compiler command line. yes the order matters, that's the whole point bestie
• --force — tells it to just ignore qualified names that don't exist. chaotic, but sometimes you need it 💀
• -i — overwrites the edited <file>s. like, in place. be careful, no undo button 🫶
• --input=<string> — a YAML file to load your oldname-newname pairs from
• --new-name=<string> — the fresh new name you want the symbol changed to ✨
• --offset=<uint> — finds the symbol by offset instead of by <line>:<column>. different route, same destination
• -p=<string> — the build path
• --pl — prints the locations that get affected by the rename out to stderr
• --pn — prints the found symbol's name before the renaming happens, out to stderr
• --qualified-name=<string> — the fully qualified name of the symbol, i.e. the whole entire government name 🎀
