Inspections

ReSharper | Options | Code Editing | C++ | Inspections

On this page, you can adjust the way code inspection works in C++.

Item	Description
General
Show popups for import actions
Enable inspections, quick fixes and context actions in files external to the solution
Color identifiers	This options enables extended highlighting of C++ syntax. There are 20 identifier types that you can highlight differently. You can change colors and fonts at any time in Visual Studio options (Tools | Options | Environment | Fonts and Colors).
Replace Visual Studio tooltip
Show gutter icons	By default, ReSharper adds action indicators (gutter icons) that provide quick access to navigation and other actions. In some cases, there may be too many of these indicators and you may want to disable them: The most frequently appearing action indicator is Navigate to declaration/definition , so you can either disable only this action or hide all action indicators.
Severity of inspections inside template code
Treat resolve errors as warnings in template code	This option lets you decrease severity of errors in C++ templates. By default, this option is enabled. You may want to leave it enabled for two reasons: Visual Studio does not compile unused C++ templates. Thus, if this option is not enabled, you may see errors in perfectly compilable code. Visual Studio compiler works not exactly the same as the C++ standard prescribes. Therefore, this option allows you not to highlight errors that that are possibly ignored by the Visual Studio compiler.
Severity of inspections inside template code
Enable clang-tidy support	Lets you enable or disable Clang-Tidy integration.
List of enabled/disabled clang-tidy checks	The -checks command line option of the Clang-Tidy binary is used to pass the list of enabled checks, which then gets appended to the value of the checks option read from the Clang-Tidy config. To construct the -checks argument, ReSharper takes this value and appends to it the names of Clang-Tidy checks which are turned off on the Code Inspection | Inspection Severity options page.
Additional clang command line arguments	Arguments specified in this field are appended to the list of arguments passed to the Clang-Tidy binary.
Clang-Tidy config	Use this field to pass a string with custom configuration to the Clang-Tidy binary via the -config command-line option.
Reformat changed code after applying Clang-Tidy fix-its	By default, ReSharper will reformat code changed by Clang-Tidy fixes to maintain the code style. You can disable this setting to speed up the execution of Clang-Tidy fixes and bulk-reformat the modified code later.
