Support for ignoring warning
There should be possibility to ignore warnings with some comment in code for example:
// NOCLEAN
#include "not_needed_header.h"
This would help with false-positives until the other issues are fixed.
This wonderful packages gets a lot of use from the c++ community and it's been quite some time since this has been requested. There have even been a few SO posts asking for this feature:
- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35517785/how-to-exclude-files-for-cppclean-run
- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60957481/is-there-a-way-to-suppress-cppclean-issues
I will put in a PR for this feature today. OP suggested it can be used to silence false positives. Most of the issues at the time are now resolved. It is nonetheless a helpful feature for development and for some design conventions that appear to linting tools as being redundant. For example some developers include a *.tpp file inside a header to separate a template definition from its implementation.
I suggest we use similar syntax to other tools such as eslint:
// cppclean-disable
The minimum requirements for this feature are:
// 1. Disable for a whole file
// cppclean-disable
// 2. Disable for a single line
// cppclean-disable-next-line
Additions that will be nice in the future are:
// 3. Support block style comments
/* cppclean-disable-next-line */
// 4. Re-enable after a block
// cppclean-disable
// cppclean-enable
// 5. Disable selected rules only
// cppclean-disable already-included
// 6. Re-enable a subset of selected rules
// cppclean-disable already-included, static-data
// cppclean-enable already-included
