Thank you for running strace to see what the behavior is. From what I understand, this is hard to judge because it depends on when the SourceManager elects to drop its underlying memory buffer (if at all). We definitely try to avoid going back to source when possible in Clang; I think clang-tidy should take a similar policy. I don't think the fix you have is incorrect. I am, however, not convinced this is the best way to solve the problem because we're playing whack-a-mole with fixing replacements already, and this is one more instance of such need. @alexfh had suggested (in a different review thread about a similar need) that we solve this through a convenient bottleneck (such as the diagnostics engine) that basically runs clang-format over replaced text, handles extraneous commas, etc and I would prefer to hear if efforts are being made/planned for that approach before committing another one-off solution. The extra space included in the current behavior is not a correctness issue, so I'm not too worried about getting this fix in immediately if there's work in progress on a better approach. https://reviews.llvm.org/D25406 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
