There is a FIXME: to remove process_file_data from style/checkers/cpp.py.
Created attachment 218579 [details] patch removes a function I have simply split the functionality of process_file_data into two parts: the checker is now created directly in the CppStyleTestBase unit test, while setting the module's global _unit_test_config is done from the constructor of CppChecker. Although currently it causes no problem, I think that setting the global from the constructor is not a nice nor safe solution. What could be done are: - move the global into the CppChecker class and propagate its value (through 3 functions) to the only place it is used (the 3 functions are used nowhere else), or - move all the functions (or almost all) into the CppChecker class, or - leave it as it is now. By the way, to set up some specific environments, the cpp_unittest uses both globals and parameter propagation. Is one of them preferred?
