modernize-use-equals-delete
===========================
+Prior to C++11, the only way to "delete" a given function was to make it
+``private`` and without definition, to generate a compiler error (calling
+private function) or a linker error (undefined reference).
+
+After C++11, the more idiomatic way to achieve this is by marking the functions
+as ``= delete``, and keeping them in the ``public`` section.
+
This check marks unimplemented private special member functions with ``= delete``.
+Additionally, it warns about ``delete``'d functions still kept in the ``private``
+section, that should be moved to the ``public`` one instead.
+
To avoid false-positives, this check only applies in a translation unit that has
-all other member functions implemented.
+all other member functions implemented. The check will generate partial fixes
+by adding ``= delete``, but the user must manually move it to the ``public``
+section.
.. code-block:: c++
- struct A {
- private:
+ // Example: bad
+ class A {
+ private:
A(const A&);
A& operator=(const A&);
};
- // becomes

- struct A {
- private:
+ // Example: good
+ class A {
+ public:
A(const A&) = delete;
A& operator=(const A&) = delete;
};
