Summary

Fixes https://github.com/clangd/clangd/issues/279. We were removing the color options but not the preceeding -Xclang which causes errors since the -Xclang would now apply to the next option in the list of options. Now, when removing a color option, we check if there was a preceeding -Xclang and remove it as well.

Thanks, LGTM. But please upload the diff with full context, see https://llvm.org/docs/Phabricator.html#phabricator-request-review-web and https://llvm.org/docs/Contributing.html#how-to-submit-a-patch.

We've also discussed this offline and think that a more principled solution is necessary in clangd side to switch from "string manipulations" to a more semantic approach.

In the meantime this fix sounds like a good short term solution, maybe even a long term one for clang-tools that will keep using these adjusters. WDYT @sammccall ?

LGTM too, though the overall solution space here is a bit sad:

  • obviously there's lots of other instances of this pattern that should really be fixed as long as the arg-adjuster API is supported
  • driver is such a mess that patching the CompilerInvocation afterwards is also really hard in many cases, though not this one (I prototyped this)
clang/lib/Tooling/ArgumentsAdjusters.cpp
46

Maybe add a FIXME: this should apply to most arg adjusters!

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Feb 25 2020, 2:10 AM

Added FIXME.

I do not have commit access. It would be great if someone could merge this for me.
