The JSON file contains information about the C++ symbols that +are referenced by the input file. The data is eventually consumed by +Searchfox. See https://github.com/mozsearch/mozsearch for more +information. + +This plugin is enabled with the --enable-clang-plugin and +--enable-mozsearch-plugin mozconfig options. The output of the plugin +is stored in $OBJDIR/mozsearch_index. + +This code is not a checker, unlike other parts of the Mozilla clang +plugin. It cannot be used with clang-tidy. |
