.. title:: clang-tidy - cppcoreguidelines-pro-bounds-array-to-pointer-decay cppcoreguidelines-pro-bounds-array-to-pointer-decay =================================================== This check flags all array to pointer decays. Pointers should not be used as arrays. ``span<T>`` is a bounds-checked, safe alternative to using pointers to access arrays. This rule is part of the "Bounds safety" profile of the C++ Core Guidelines, see https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md#Pro-bounds-decay.
