## Member Typedef Documentation

## ◆ Ptr

using Ptr = std::shared_ptr<Node>
| inherited

## ◆ UniquePtr

using UniquePtr = std::unique_ptr<ValueBase>

## Member Enumeration Documentation

## ◆ NodeType

enum NodeType
| inherited

An enumerated list of node types for all concrete node types. These can be used for faster evaluation of a given concrete node using the virtual function table via Node::nodetype() rather than performing a dynamic_cast/calling Node::isType.

Note
  This is sometimes referred to as "manual RTTI". We use this technique combine with single dispatch due to opting for CRTP on the main visitor and no templated virtual method support in C++. i.e. no way to double dispatch: visit<template T>(Visitor<T>*)
  Abstract (pure-virtual) nodes are not listed here. Node::isType should be used to determine if a node is of a given abstract type.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ ~ValueBase()

~ValueBase | ( |  | ) |
| overridedefault

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ basetype()

const Expression * basetype | ( |  | ) | const
| inlineoverridevirtual

Virtual method for accessing a node's base class. Note that if this is called explicitly on an instance of ast::Node (the top most base class) a nullptr is returned. This is primarily used by the Visitor to support hierarchical visits.

Returns
  Returns the current node as its base class type.

Reimplemented from Expression.

Reimplemented in Value< T >, and Value< std::string >.

## ◆ child()

const Node * child | ( | const | index | ) | const
| inlineoverridevirtual

Virtual method for accessing child information. Returns a const pointer to a child node at the given index. If the index is out of range, a nullptr is returned.

Note
  This may still return a nullptr even if the given index is valid if the child node has not been created.

Parameters

  index | The child index to query

Returns
  A Pointer to the child node, or a nullptr if none exists.

Implements Node.

## ◆ childidx()

int64_t childidx | ( |  | ) | const
| inlineinherited

Returns the child index of this node in relation to its parent, or -1 if no valid index is found (usually representing the top most node (i.e. Tree)

Returns
  The child index of this node

## ◆ children()

size_t children | ( |  | ) | const
| inlineoverridevirtual

Virtual method for accessing child information. Returns the number of children a given AST node owns.

Returns
  The number of children this node owns.

Implements Node.

## ◆ copy()

virtual Expression * copy | ( |  | ) | const
| overridepure virtual

The deep copy method for a Node.

Returns
  A deep copy of the current node and all its children

Implements Expression.

Implemented in Value< T >, and Value< std::string >.

## ◆ isType()

bool isType | ( |  | ) | const
| inlineinherited

Query whether or not this node is of a specific (derived) type. This method should be used to check if a node is of a particular abstract type. When checking concrete types, it's generally more efficient to check the return value of Node::nodetype()

Template Parameters

  NodeT | The node type to query against.

Returns
  True if this node is of the given type, false otherwise.

## ◆ nodename()

virtual const char * nodename | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtualinherited

Virtual method for accessing node name information.

Returns
  Returns the node class name

Implemented in StatementList, Block, Tree, CommaOperator, Loop, ConditionalStatement, BinaryOperator, TernaryOperator, AssignExpression, Crement, UnaryOperator, Cast, FunctionCall, Keyword, ArrayUnpack, ArrayPack, Attribute, ExternalVariable, Local, DeclareLocal, Value< T >, and Value< std::string >.

## ◆ nodetype()

virtual NodeType nodetype | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtualinherited

Virtual method for accessing node type information.

Note
  This method should be used when querying a concrete nodes type.

Returns
  Returns the enumerated node type from the NodeType list

Implemented in StatementList, Block, Tree, CommaOperator, Loop, ConditionalStatement, BinaryOperator, TernaryOperator, AssignExpression, Crement, UnaryOperator, Cast, FunctionCall, Keyword, ArrayUnpack, ArrayPack, Attribute, ExternalVariable, Local, DeclareLocal, Value< T >, and Value< std::string >.

## ◆ parent()

const Node * parent | ( |  | ) | const
| inlineinherited

Access a const pointer to this nodes parent.

Note
  Can be a nullptr if this is the top most node in an AST (usually a Tree)

Returns
  A const pointer to this node's parent node

## ◆ replace()

bool replace | ( | Node * | node | ) |
| inlineinherited

In place replacement. Attempts to replace this node at its specific location within its Abstract Syntax Tree. On a successful replacement, this node is destroyed, the provided node is inserted in its place and ownership is transferred to the parent node. No further calls to this node can be made on successful replacements.

Note
  A replacement will fail if this node is the top most node within an AST hierarchy or if the provided node type is not a compatible type for the required abstract storage. For example, if this node is an Attribute being held on a BinaryOperator, only concrete nodes derived from an Expression can be used as a replacement.
  This method will dynamic_cast the provided node to check to see if it's a compatible type.

Parameters

  node | The node to insert on a successful replacement.

Returns
  True if the replacement was successful, resulting in destruction of this class and ownership transferal of the provided node. False otherwise, where this and the provided node are unchanged.

## ◆ replacechild()

bool replacechild | ( | const size_t | index,
|  | Node * | node
| ) |  |
| inlinevirtualinherited

Virtual method that attempted to replace a child at a given index with a provided node type.

Note
  See Node::replace for a more detailed description

Parameters

  index | The child index where a replacement should be attempted
  node | The node to insert on a successful replacement.

Returns
  True if the replacement was successful, false otherwise

Reimplemented in StatementList, Block, CommaOperator, Loop, ConditionalStatement, BinaryOperator, TernaryOperator, AssignExpression, Crement, UnaryOperator, Cast, FunctionCall, ArrayUnpack, ArrayPack, and DeclareLocal.

## ◆ setParent()

void setParent | ( | Node * | parent | ) |
| inlineinherited

Set this node's parent. This is used during construction of an AST and should not be used.

Parameters

  parent | The parent to set

## ◆ subname()

virtual const char * subname | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtualinherited

Virtual method for accessing node name information.

Returns
  Returns the short node class name

Implemented in StatementList, Block, Tree, CommaOperator, Loop, ConditionalStatement, BinaryOperator, TernaryOperator, AssignExpression, Crement, UnaryOperator, Cast, FunctionCall, Keyword, ArrayUnpack, ArrayPack, Attribute, ExternalVariable, Local, DeclareLocal, Value< T >, and Value< std::string >.
