Method Detail

getExpansion

IASTPreprocessorMacroExpansion getExpansion()

Returns the expansion node enclosing this location. This will be the outermost macro expansion that can actually be found in the code.

getNodeOffset

int getNodeOffset()

Returns an offset within the macro-expansion. The offset can be used to compare nodes within the same macro-expansion. However, it does not serve as an offset into a file.

Specified by:

getNodeOffset in interface IASTNodeLocation

getNodeLength

int getNodeLength()

Returns the length of this location. The length can be used to compare this location with others from within the same macro-expansion. However, the length does not neccessarily relate to a length in terms of characters.

Specified by:

getNodeLength in interface IASTNodeLocation
