rust-clippy

A collection of lints that give helpful tips to newbies and catch oversights.

Lints included in this crate:

single_match: Warns when a match statement with a single nontrivial arm (i.e, where the other arm is _ => {}) is used, and recommends if let instead.
box_vec: Warns on usage of Box<Vec<T>>
dlist: Warns on usage of DList
str_to_string: Warns on usage of str::to_string()
toplevel_ref_arg: Warns when a function argument is declared ref (i.e. fn foo(ref x: u8), but not fn foo((ref x, ref y): (u8, u8)))
eq_op: Warns on equal operands on both sides of a comparison or bitwise combination
bad_bit_mask: Denies expressions of the form _ & mask == select that will only ever return true or false (because in the example select containing bits that mask doesn't have)
needless_bool : Warns on if-statements with plain booleans in the then- and else-clause, e.g. if p { true } else { false }
ptr_arg: Warns on fn arguments of the type &Vec<...> or &String, suggesting to use &[...] or &str instead, respectively
approx_constant: Warns if the approximate of a known float constant (in std::f64::consts or std::f32::consts) is found and suggests to use the constant
cmp_nan: Denies comparisons to NAN (which will always return false, which is probably not intended)
float_cmp: Warns on == or != comparisons of floaty typed values. As floating-point operations usually involve rounding errors, it is always better to check for approximate equality within some small bounds
precedence: Warns on expressions where precedence may trip up the unwary reader of the source and suggests adding parenthesis, e.g. x << 2 + y will be parsed as x << (2 + y)

To use, add the following lines to your Cargo.toml:

[dev-dependencies.rust-clippy]
git = "https://github.com/Manishearth/rust-clippy"

In your code, you may add #![plugin(clippy)] to use it (you may also need to include a #![feature(plugin)] line)

You can allow/warn/deny the whole set using the clippy lint group (#[allow(clippy)], etc)

More to come, please file an issue if you have ideas!
