Do any C++ automatic-refactoring tools exist that can mark all classes with non-virtual destructors final? This could prevent bad inheritance choices which would potentially lead to undefined behavior.

It seems like a fairly simple Perl script could do a decent job with this, but an even better option would be something based on Clang tools.

A Windows tool would be acceptable, even if it requires an MSVC license, but I'd prefer something that can run on Debian Linux.

    What operating system does it need to run on? – Undo Dec 3 '15 at 0:33
  • @Undo Preferably Linux, though it'd be easy enough to check out source code to Windows and do the refactoring there. I think I could even obtain an MSVS 2015 license if necessary. – Kyle Strand Dec 3 '15 at 0:41
