问题
I have a templated class SafeInt<T> (By Microsoft).
This class in theory can be used in place of a POD integer type and can detect any integer overflows during arithmetic operations.
For this class I wrote some custom templatized overloaded arithmetic operator (+, -, *, /) functions whose both arguments are objects of SafeInt<T>.
I typedef'd all my integer types to SafeInt class type.
I want to search my codebase for instances of the said binary operators where both operands are of type SafeInt.
Some of the ways I could think of
String search using regex and weed through the code to detect operator usage instances where both operands are SafeInt objects.
Write a clang tool and process the AST to do this searching (I am yet to learn how to write such a tool.)
Somehow add a counter to count the number of times the custom overloaded operator is instantiated. I spent a lot of time trying this but doesn't seem to work.
Can anyone suggest a better way?
Please let me know if I need to clarify anything.
Thanks.

To do this right, you clearly have to be able to identify individual uses of the operator which overload to a specific operator definition. Fundamentally, you need what the front end of a C++ compiler does: parsing and name resolution (including the overloads).
Obviously GCC and Clang have this basic capability. But you want to track/display all uses of the specific operator. You can probably bend Clang (or GCC, harder) to give you this information on a file-by-file basis.
Our DMS Software Reengineering Toolkit with its C++ Front End can be used for this, too. DMS provides the generic parsing and symbol table support machinery; the C++ front end specializes DMS to handle C++ with full, accurate name resolution including overloads, for both GCC5 and MSVS2015. Its symbol table actually collects, for each declaration in a scope, the point of the declaration, and the list of uses of that declaration in terms of accurate source positions. The symbol scopes include an entry for each (overloaded) operator valid in the scope. You could just go to the desired symbol table entry and enumerate/count the list of references to get a raw count. There are standard APIs for this available via DMS.
The same kind of symbol scope/definition/uses information is used by our Java Source Browser to build an HTML-based JavaDoc-like display with full HTML linkages between symbol declarations and uses. So for any symbol declaration, you can easily see the uses.
The C++ front end has a similar HTMLizer that operates on C++ source code. It isn't as mature/pretty, but it is robust. It presently doesn't show all the uses of a declared symbol, but that would be a pretty straightforward change to make to it. (I don't have a publicly visible instance of it. Contact me through my bio and I can send you a sample).

Short answer
You can do this using the clang-query command:
$ clang-query \
-c='m cxxOperatorCallExpr(callee(functionDecl(hasName("operator+"))), hasArgument(0, expr(hasType(cxxRecordDecl(hasName("SafeInt"))))), hasArgument(1, expr(hasType(cxxRecordDecl(hasName("SafeInt"))))))' \
use-si.cc --
Match #1:
/home/scott/wrk/learn/clang/clang-query1/use-si.cc:10:3: note: "root" binds here
x + y; // reported
^~~~~
1 match.
What is clang-query?
clang-query is a utility intended to facilitate writing clang-tidy checks. In particular it understands the language of AST Matchers and can be used to interactively explore what is matched by a given match expression. However, as shown here, it can also be used non-interactively to look for arbitrary AST tree patterns.
The blog post Exploring Clang Tooling Part 2: Examining the Clang AST with clang-query by Stephen Kelly provides a nice introduction to using clang-query.
The clang-query program is included in the pre-built LLVM binaries, or it can be built from source as described in the AST Matchers Tutorial.
How does the above command work?
The -c argument provides a command to run non-interactively. With whitespace added, the command is:
m // Match (and report) every
cxxOperatorCallExpr( // operator function call
callee(functionDecl( // where the callee
hasName("operator+"))), // is "operator+", and
hasArgument(0, // where the first argument
expr(hasType(cxxRecordDecl( // is a class type
hasName("SafeInt"))))), // called "SafeInt",
hasArgument(1, // and the second argument
expr(hasType(cxxRecordDecl( // is also a class type
hasName("SafeInt")))))) // called "SafeInt".
The command line ends with use-si.cc --, meaning to analyze use-si.cc and there are no extra compiler flags needed by clang to interpret it.
The clang-query command line has the same basic structure as that of clang-tidy, including the ability to pass -p compile_commands.json to scan many files at once, possibly with different compiler options per file.
Example input
For completeness, the input I used to test my matcher is use-si.cc:
// use-si.cc
#include "SafeInt.hpp" // SafeInt
void f1()
{
SafeInt<int> x(2);
SafeInt<int> y(3);
x + y; // reported
x + 2; // not reported
2 + x; // not reported
}
where SafeInt.hpp comes from https://github.com/dcleblanc/SafeInt , the repo named on the Microsoft SafeInt page.
