* Install
** Layer
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
add =c-c++= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this
file.
*Note:* [[https://github.com/tuhdo/semantic-refactor][semantic-refactor]] is only available for Emacs 24.4+
** Default mode for header files
Mode for header files is auto detected by `c-or-c++-mode' in Emacs > 26.1+.
Older Emacs will open header files in =c-mode= by default, you can open them in
=c++-mode= by setting the variable =c-c++-default-mode-for-headers= as follow.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables c-c++-default-mode-for-headers 'c++-mode)))
#+END_SRC
*Note:* To set the variable for a given project, create a directory local
variable at the root of your project. More info on directory local variables
can be found in the [[http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Directory-Local-Variables.html][dir-locals]].
** Backends
This layer supports the selection of RTags, or one of three available implementations
of the [[https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol][Language Server Protocol]]
for code navigation etc. via the =c-c++-backend= configuration variable.
*** RTags
RTags is a well established clang-based source code indexing tool.
**** External dependencies
Install the RTags server via [[https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/rtags][homebrew]], the [[https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtags/][aur]] or from source according to the
instructions [[https://github.com/Andersbakken/rtags][here]]. N.B. RTags is not supported on Windows at the time of
writing, although there is an [[https://github.com/Andersbakken/rtags/issues/770][open issue with some recent activity]] on github.
**** Configuration
To enable support for =rtags=, set the layer variable =c-c++-backend=:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables c-c++-backend 'rtags)))
#+END_SRC
This will also enable =company-rtags= to be used as a backend for
auto-completion (when =auto-completion= layer is included).
To prevent this, while retaining the rest of Rtags functionality,
set the variable =c-c++-rtags-completion= to =nil=:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables
c-c++-backend 'rtags
c-c++-enable-rtags-completion nil)))
#+END_SRC
*** LSP
LSP support is provided via the [[file:../../+tools/lsp/README.org][LSP layer]], using one of three available backends (all based on libclang).
- [[https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clangd/][clangd]]
- [[https://github.com/cquery-project/cquery][cquery]]
- [[https://github.com/MaskRay/ccls][ccls]]
They claim to be more efficient than existing tools at indexing large code bases.
**** Features
- Cross references (definitions, references, base/derived classes/methods, type instances, ...)
- Diagnostics
- Completion with =company-lsp=
- Semantic highlighting (=cquery=, =ccls=)
- See more on [[https://github.com/cquery-project/cquery/wiki/Emacs]]
- Cross-platform - functional on Windows, Linux and macOS.
**** External dependencies
Install one (or more) of the following (=clangd= is used by default) :
***** clangd
Install =clang= using a binary distribution downloaded from the [[http://releases.llvm.org/download.html][LLVM releases page]] or via your package manager.
This is the default implementation used by the emacs =lsp-mode= package and probably the easiest to install.
- [[https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clangd/Extensions.html][clangd protocol extensions page]]
***** ccls server
Install the =ccls= server. [[https://github.com/MaskRay/ccls/wiki/Getting-started][Instructions]].
This is currently the most fully featured implementation, including semantic highlighting and some navigation/
introspection features not provided by clangd.
***** cquery server
Install the =cquery= server. [[https://github.com/cquery-project/cquery/wiki/Getting-started][Instructions]].
This implementation appears to be unmaintained, and continued support is provided here purely for existing users.
**** Configuration
***** Basic
To use the default =clangd= language server, simply select =lsp= as the =c-c++= layer backend by adding the
following to your dotfile:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables c-c++-backend 'lsp)))
#+END_SRC
N.B. The [[file:../../+tools/lsp/README.org][LSP layer]] will be loaded automatically.
***** Selecting an alternate LSP server
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables c-c++-backend 'lsp c-c++-lsp-server 'ccls))) ; or 'cquery or 'clangd
#+END_SRC
***** Setting path to backend executable
The basic configuration above should work if the cquery/ccls executable folder
is present in your path. If not, you can set the path explicitly.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables
c-c++-backend 'lsp
c-c++-server 'ccls
c-c++-lsp-executable "/path/to/bin/ccls/clangd/or/cquery")))
#+END_SRC
If you need to expand =~= in the path, you can use =file-truename= like
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables
c-c++-backend 'lsp
c-c++-server 'ccls
c-c++-lsp-executable (file-truename "~/bin/clangd/ccls/or/cquery"))))
#+END_SRC
***** Semantic highlighting :ccls:cquery:
Semantic highlighting is disabled by default. To enable, set the
=c-c++-lsp-sem-highlight-method= variable to either ='font-lock= or ='overlay=.
To enable the rainbow semantic highlighting colour theme, set
=c-c++-lsp-sem-highlight-rainbow= to =t=.
***** Additional configuration options :ccls:cquery:
Both lsp backends are configured to store their index cache in a subdirectory of
=.emacs.d/cache=. This can be overridden by specifying an explicit
=c-c++-lsp-cache-dir=. Setting this value to a relative path will cause the
index cache to be placed in a subdirectory of your project root.
There are other initialization options such as the number of indexer threads,
cache serialization format. They have good default values. See =config.el= of
the layer and the backends' respective homepages for more info.
- [[https://github.com/MaskRay/ccls/wiki/Emacs][Emacs section of =ccls= wiki]]
- [[https://github.com/cquery-project/cquery/wiki/Emacs][Emacs section of =cquery= wiki]]
***** Example dotspacemacs-configuration-layers entry
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables
c-c++-adopt-subprojects t
c-c++-backend 'lsp
c-c++-server 'ccls
c-c++-lsp-executable (file-truename "~/dev/cpp/ccls/Release/ccls")
c-c++-lsp-sem-highlight-rainbow t)))
#+END_SRC
**** Completion
=company-lsp= provides completion functionality. Client-side cache and sorting
have been disabled in favour of server,
as recommended by =cquery=/=ccls= wikis.
**** Debugger (dap integration)
To install the debug adapter you may run =M-x dap-gdb-lldb-setup= when you are
on Linux or download it manually from [[https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=webfreak.debug][Native Debug]] and adjust
=dap-gdb-lldb-path=.
** Organize file header includes on save
To organize the file header includes on save, set the layer variable
=c++-enable-organize-includes-on-save= to =t= in the dotfile:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables c++-enable-organize-includes-on-save t)))
#+END_SRC
** Clang Configuration
To enable Clang support, set the layer variable =c-c++-enable-clang-support=
to =t= in the dotfile:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables c-c++-enable-clang-support t)))
#+END_SRC
N.B. do not set this option if either the =cquery= or =ccls= backend
*** clang-format
[[http://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html][clang-format]] allows reformatting either a selected region of code
(=clang-format-region=) or a whole buffer (=clang-format-buffer=)
according to a style defined in a =.clang-format= file. This file
is either located in the same directory as the file being edited,
or any of its parent directories. If no =.clang-format= is found,
then a default style will be used.
To enable automatic buffer formatting on save, set the variable
=c-c++-enable-clang-format-on-save= to =t=:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((c-c++ :variables c-c++-enable-clang-format-on-save t)))
#+END_SRC
*** Company-clang and flycheck
This layer adds some fancy improvements to =company-clang=. It includes a hook
to load a projects =.clang_complete= file, which is just a text file with one
clang flag per line, a format also used by other text editor clang plugins.
Not only does this allow proper autocomplete on projects with extra includes and
flags, but there is also support for flycheck so that it doesn't complain about
missing header files.
** Enable google-set-c-style
If you have clang enabled with =clang-format= as described earlier in this page
you may not have a lot of neeed for =google-set-c-style= if you are already
using a mode based on Google mode for most of your projects.
However, if you don't have (or want) =clang-format=, or if you have to do a lot
[[https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/TrampMode][Tramp]] remote editing on systems that don't have =clang-format= installed, you
may want =google-c-style= enabled and added to your common hooks.
To get =google-c-style= actually install itself into your C/C++ common hooks,
you need to have =c-c++-enable-google-style= defined to true when you load the
C-C++ lang in Spacemacs. In your =~/.spacemacs= file, a possible way that this
would look is that in your list of =dostpacemacs-configuration-layers= you have
an entry like
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(c-c++ :variables c-c++-enable-google-style t)
#+END_SRC
Additionally, if you have =c-c++-enable-google-newline= variable set then
=`google-make-newline-indent= will be set as a =c-mode-common-hook=. You would
set that up like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(c-c++ :variables c-c++-enable-google-style t
c-c++-enable-google-newline t)
#+END_SRC
** Newlines
You can enable the =Auto-newline= minor mode that automatically adds newlines
after certain characters by setting the =c-c++-enable-auto-newline= variable.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(c-c++ :variables c-c++-enable-auto-newline t)
#+END_SRC
** Projectile sub-project adoption
To prevent projectile from using subproject root when visiting files in a subproject,
set =c-c++-adopt-subprojects= to =t=.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(c-c++ :variables c-c++-adopt-subprojects t)
#+END_SRC
This is based on a recommendation on the =cquery= and =ccls= wikis, but should be more
generally applicable.
