What went wrong

Something went wrong in specifically this place, and I also searched through both open and closed issues for the same problem before reporting a bug here.

Are you having trouble configuring ALE? Try asking for help on Stack Exchange or perhaps on Reddit instead. The GitHub issue tracker should be used for reporting bugs or asking for new features.

How can I disbale its checking? as you can see, I already use ale_c_parse_compile_commands which saying that it also works for cpp.

Reproducing the bug

1. I vim a cpp file
2. Then it reports warning

   fixed-compilation-database|1 warning| No such file or directory
   json-compilation-database|1 warning| No such file or directory

This issue clearly lacks a valid description.

If there truly is a bug, could @starsareintherose please make this actionable by adding some more info than the merely unmodified template, which obviously wasn't even read?

In the more likely scenario, that this is not bug report but rather a support request, the support channels suggested above likely both have a lot higher chance at being successful in giving help, than abusing an already overflowing issue tracker. Could @starsareintherose please be so kind to close the issue if there is no real bug and ask where more appropriate?

[w0rp]

I see what the issue is. When the ALE setting is configured not to read compile_commands.json, we need to update the arguments for clang-check so it doesn't search for the file.
