hicpp-explicit-conversions
==========================

This check is an alias for
:doc:`google-explicit-constructor <../google/explicit-constructor>`.

Used to enforce parts of `rule 5.4.1
<https://www.perforce.com/resources/qac/high-integrity-cpp-coding-rules>`_.
This check will enforce that constructors and conversion operators are
marked ``explicit``. Other forms of casting checks are implemented in
other places. The following checks can be used to check for more forms
of casting:

- :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-static-cast-downcast
  <../cppcoreguidelines/pro-type-static-cast-downcast>`
- :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-reinterpret-cast
  <../cppcoreguidelines/pro-type-reinterpret-cast>`
- :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-const-cast
  <../cppcoreguidelines/pro-type-const-cast>`
- :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-cstyle-cast
