#+TITLE: :lang cc

This module adds support for the C-family of languages: C, C++, and Objective-C.

+ Code completion (~company-irony~)
+ eldoc support (~irony-eldoc~)
+ Syntax-checking (~flycheck-irony~)
+ Code navigation (~irony~)
+ File Templates ([[../../feature/file-templates/templates/c-mode][c-mode]], [[../../feature/file-templates/templates/c++-mode][c++-mode]])
+ Snippets ([[https://github.com/hlissner/emacs-snippets/tree/master/cc-mode][cc-mode]], [[https://github.com/hlissner/emacs-snippets/tree/master/c-mode][c-mode]], [[https://github.com/hlissner/emacs-snippets/tree/master/c++-mode][c++-mode]])
+ Several improvements to C++11 indentation and syntax highlighting.

#+begin_quote
C contends with Haskell and Ruby for my favorite language. That said, it's more accurate to say I write C, but with two or three C++ features.

The module provides nominal support for Objective-C, which I really only use to inspect generated glue code for iOS mobile apps. Otherwise, I prefer Swift.

* Install
This module requires ~irony-server~ for most of its features, which depends on ~cmake~ and ~libclang~.

** MacOS
Due to linking issues, MacOS users must compile irony-server manually:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :tangle (if (doom-system-os 'macos) "yes")
brew install cmake
brew install llvm  # 1gb+ installation! May take a while!

git clone https://github.com/Sarcasm/irony-mode irony-mode
mkdir irony-mode/server/build
pushd irony-mode/server/build

DEST="$HOME/.emacs.d/.local/$(hostname)/etc/irony-server/"
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH=ON \
      -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$DEST" ../
cmake --build . --use-stderr --config Release --target install

install_name_tool -change @rpath/libclang.dylib \
    /usr/local/opt/llvm/lib/libclang.dylib \
    "$DEST/bin/irony-server"

# cleanup
popd
rm -rf irony-mode
#+END_SRC

** Arch Linux
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :tangle (if (doom-system-os 'arch) "yes")
sudo pacman --needed --noconfirm -S clang cmake
#+END_SRC

Then run ~M-x irony-install-server~ in Emacs.
