CLANG-REORDER-FIELDS(1)

📦 version 12.0.1, in ubuntu jammy

🎀 NAME 🎀

clang-reorder-fields — bestie, this is the manual page for clang-reorder-fields version 12, and she's here to shuffle your struct fields around like she's reorganizing her Pinterest boards 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

🌸 OVERVIEW

OK so picture this: you've got a C/C++ struct or class and the fields are just... in an order. Any order. Chaos order. This tool reorders those fields for you. That's it, that's the whole vibe. A tool to reorder fields in C/C++ structs/classes. Periodt. 🦋

💜 USAGE

clang-reorder-fields [options] <source0> [... <sourceN>]

You hand her your options, then one or more source files — <source0> and friends all the way up to <sourceN> — and she does her thing. Slay. ✨

🔥 OPTIONS

⭐ Generic Options

These are the ones basically every clang tool has, the little universal besties:

  • --help — shows you all the available options. Want more? There's --help-hidden for more. 👀
  • --help-list — shows you the list of available options. And yep, there's a --help-list-hidden for more of those too.
  • --version — tells you the version of this program. Identity check, who is she 💖

👑 clang-reorder-fields options

Now the main character options, the ones that are actually hers:

  • --extra-arg=<string> — an extra argument that gets appended to the compiler command line. Sneak it in at the end, no cap.
  • --extra-arg-before=<string> — an extra argument that gets prepended to the compiler command line. This one goes first, like she's cutting the line 🙈
  • --fields-order=<string> — the desired fields order. This is literally the whole point, bestie. Tell her the order you want. 🍓
  • -i — overwrite edited files. She edits them in place. Fr fr, no backup, she just goes for it. 😭
  • -p=<string> — build path.
  • --record-name=<string> — the name of the struct/class. Gotta tell her which one you're talking about, iykyk 🌈
Heads up bestie: -i overwrites your edited files directly. No undo button, no "are you sure", just main character energy. Be sure before you commit to the bit 💀

And that's the whole page, gorgeous. This was clang-reorder-fields version 12, from February 2022 — go forth and reorder those fields, you absolute icon 🫶🌸✨
