is there an interest for common boost clang-format and clang-tidy (only the module readability-identifier-naming) configurations to inforce consistent layout and naming style?

For clang-format there are predefined styles like llvm, google etc. I think about adding a new predefined style 'boost' to clang-format. But first i would start with a separate _clang-format file.

You may find mine a useful starting point: https://github.com/ned14/boost.afio/blob/master/.clang-format It generally meets the Boost style guidelines apart from the absurdly width max column width which I am very unusual in really liking.

For clang-tidy there are no predefined styles thus i would simply create a _clang-tidy file.

I don't know about others, but I find clang tidy *very* project specific. The ideal config varies a lot just between my own libraries, let alone between those written by many people. Niall -- ned Productions Limited Consulting http://www.nedproductions.biz/ http://ie.linkedin.com/in/nialldouglas/
