LLVM每日谈之十四 如何给Clang添加一个属性

每次内容主要出自文档： “Clang” CFE Internals Manual

地址： http://clang.llvm.org/docs/InternalsManual.html

在这个文档中，以简明的的一个例子说明了如何按照这个方式在Clang中添加一个属性。讲的很清楚，我在这里不再累述，只是将例子中的部分代码和文档结合起来，一起展现给大家。

How to add an attribute¶

To add an attribute, you’ll have to add it to the list of attributes, add it tothe parsing phase, and look for it in the AST scan.r124217 has a good example of adding a warning attribute.

(Beware that this hasn’t been reviewed/fixed by the people who designed theattributes system yet.)

include/clang/Basic/Attr.td

First, add your attribute to the include/clang/Basic/Attr.td file.

Each attribute gets a def inheriting fromAttr or one of itssubclasses.InheritableAttr means that the attribute also applies tosubsequent declarations of the same name.

Spellings lists the strings that can appear in__attribute__((here)) or[[here]]. All such strings will be synonymous. If you want to allow the[[]] C++11 syntax, you have to define a list ofNamespaces, which willlet users write[[namespace::spelling]]. Using the empty string for anamespace will allow users to write just the spelling with no “::”.Attributes which g++-4.8 accepts should also have a CXX11<"gnu","spelling"> spelling.

Subjects restricts what kinds of AST node to which this attribute canappertain (roughly, attach).

Args names the arguments the attribute takes, in order. IfArgs is [StringArgument<"Arg1">, IntArgument<"Arg2">] then__attribute__((myattribute("Hello",3))) will be a valid use.

Boilerplate

Write a new HandleYourAttr() function inlib/Sema/SemaDeclAttr.cpp,and add a case to the switch in ProcessNonInheritableDeclAttr() or ProcessInheritableDeclAttr() forwarding to it.

If your attribute causes extra warnings to fire, define a DiagGroup in include/clang/Basic/DiagnosticGroups.td named after the attribute’s Spelling with “_”s replaced by “-“s. If you’reonly defining one diagnostic, you can skip DiagnosticGroups.td and use InGroup<DiagGroup<"your-attribute">> directly in DiagnosticSemaKinds.td

The meat of your attribute

Find an appropriate place in Clang to do whatever your attribute needs to do.Check for the attribute’s presence usingDecl::getAttr<YourAttr>().

Update the Clang Language Extensions document to describe your new attribute.
