## DESCRIPTION

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libfakeroot-sysv.so' from LD\_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored. OVERVIEW: A tool to rename symbols in C/C++ code. clang-rename renames every occurrence of a symbol found at \<offset\> in \<source0\>. If **-i** is specified, the edited files are overwritten to disk. Otherwise, the results are written to stdout.

USAGE: clang-rename \[subcommand\] \[options\] \<source0\> \[... \<sourceN\>\]

OPTIONS:

Clang-rename options:

**-export-fixes=**\<filename\>   - YAML file to store suggested fixes in.

**-extra-arg=**\<string\>        - Additional argument to append to the compiler command line

**-extra-arg-before=**\<string\> - Additional argument to prepend to the compiler command line

**-i**                         - Overwrite edited \<file\>s.

**-new-name=**\<string\>         - The new name to change the symbol to.

**-offset=**\<uint\>             - Locates the symbol by offset as opposed to \<line\>:\<column\>.

**-old-name=**\<string\>         - The fully qualified name of the symbol, if **-offset** is not used.

**-p=**\<string\>                - Build path

**-pl**                        - Print the locations affected by renaming to stderr.

**-pn**                        - Print the found symbol's name prior to renaming to stderr.
