I'm on Debian Stable and started to use clazy. Great tool, veeery nice. Being on stable, I don't change the installed Qt 5.7.1+dfsg-3+b1 away to anything else. But when I run clazy, it shows me issues in files that I don't want to change, e.g. this: In file included from config@exe/moc_dialog_waitwlan.cpp:9: In file included from config@exe/../../dialog_waitwlan.h:6: In file included from config@exe/ui_form_waitwlan.h:14: In file included from /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/QtWidgets/QApplication:1: In file included from /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/QtWidgets/qapplication.h:51: In file included from /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/QtGui/qguiapplication.h:45: /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/QtGui/qinputmethod.h:106:5: warning: slot arguments need to be fully-qualified (QInputMethod::Action instead of Action) [-Wclazy-fully-qualified-moc-types] void invokeAction(Action a, int cursorPosition); I get lots of those issues, and of course they clutter the display. It's now difficult to see spots on my own code because of this. Of course I could disable the test "fully-qualified-moc-types". But then this test would also be disabled for my own checks. What would help is to have a file-based filter, so that I can tell clazy "ignore anything below /usr/include/". (This happened both with clazy from git master of today and from tag v1.3)
Oops, forget this: the README recommends to use -isystem instead of -i to exclude Qt's own issues. However, this will need (usually) a deep surgery down into CMake, Meson, QBS, QMake. I, for example, don't know currently how to change Meson from -i to -isystem. So I guess this isn't exactly user-friendly. Instead a CMAKE_EXCLUDE_FILES_BELOW= environment variable would be much more user friendly.

Added CLAZY_HEADER_FILTER env variable In case you can't use -isystem due to a weird build system.

Please test this, but I think the regexp is enough
