    Method
    Description
    IASTFileLocation
    getFileLocation()
    Same as IASTNode.getFileLocation()
    char[]
    getSimpleID()
    Returns the name without qualification and without template arguments.
    boolean
    isDeclaration()
    Is this name being used in the AST as the introduction of a declaration?
    boolean
    isDefinition()
    Is this name being used in the AST as a definition rather than a declaration?
    boolean
    isReference()
    Is this name being used in the AST as a reference rather than a declaration?
    char[]
    toCharArray()
    Deprecated.
    Using this method is problematic, because for names from the index never contain qualification or template arguments, which is different for names from the AST.
