     18 // At the very least, a checker plugin is a dynamic library that exports
     19 // clang_analyzerAPIVersionString. This should be defined as follows:
     20 //
     21 //   extern "C"
     22 //   const char clang_analyzerAPIVersionString[] =
     23 //     CLANG_ANALYZER_API_VERSION_STRING;
     24 //
     25 // This is used to check whether the current version of the analyzer is known to
     26 // be incompatible with a plugin. Plugins with incompatible version strings,
     27 // or without a version string at all, will not be loaded.
     28 //
     29 // To add a custom checker to the analyzer, the plugin must also define the
     30 // function clang_registerCheckers. For example:
     31 //
     32 //    extern "C"
     33 //    void clang_registerCheckers (CheckerRegistry &registry) {
     34 //      registry.addChecker<MainCallChecker>("example.MainCallChecker",
     35 //        "Disallows calls to functions called main");
     36 //    }
     37 //
     38 // The first method argument is the full name of the checker, including its
     39 // enclosing package. By convention, the registered name of a checker is the
     40 // name of the associated class (the template argument).
     41 // The second method argument is a short human-readable description of the
     42 // checker.
     43 //
     44 // The clang_registerCheckers function may add any number of checkers to the
     45 // registry. If any checkers require additional initialization, use the three-
     46 // argument form of CheckerRegistry::addChecker.
     47 //
     48 // To load a checker plugin, specify the full path to the dynamic library as
     49 // the argument to the -load option in the cc1 frontend. You can then enable
     50 // your custom checker using the -analyzer-checker:
     51 //
     52 //   clang -cc1 -load </path/to/plugin.dylib> -analyze
     53 //     -analyzer-checker=<example.MainCallChecker>
     54 //
     55 // For a complete working example, see examples/analyzer-plugin.
