+
+`ClangCheck` is a small wrapper around :doc:`LibTooling` which can be used to
+do basic error checking and AST dumping.

+The '--' at the end is important as it prevents `clang-check` from search for a
+compilation database. For more information on how to setup and use `clang-check`
+in a project, see :doc:`HowToSetupToolingForLLVM`.
