I asked this question on SO and am repeating here with the hope someone knows the answer:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/40433573/how-can-i-specify-additional-arguments-for-use-with-cmake-cxx-clang-tidy-variabl —— I'm trying to use make use of clang-tidy integration with cmake and I'd like to pass the -check argument. I've tried adding -DCMAKE_CXX_CLANG_TIDY="/usr/local/opt/llvm38/bin/clang-tidy-3.8;-checks=*" when invoking cmake, but my makefile commands end-up looking like: /usr/local/Cellar/cmake/3.6.2/bin/cmake -E __run_iwyu --tidy="/usr/local/opt/llvm38/bin/clang-tidy-3.8;-checks=*" --source=/Users/ellery/work/..... in other words, it seems like the ; separated args are not being parsed apart. I've also tried setting the target property CXX_CLANG_TIDY directly on my target with the same value and I get the same behavior. If I remove ‘;checks=*’ from the string, everything works fine, but I get default clang-tidy behavior. Has anyone succesfully invoked clang-tidy with additional args through cmake? —— Thanks, Mike Ellery -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
