Interface IASTCompletionNode

All Known Implementing Classes:
ASTCompletionNode
public interface IASTCompletionNode
This represents the node that would occur at the point of a context completion. This node may contain the prefix text of an identifier up to the point. If there is no prefix, the completion occurred at the point where a new token would have begun. The node points to the parent node where this node, if replaced by a proper node, would reside in the tree.
Restriction:
This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
Restriction:
This interface is not intended to be extended by clients.

  • Method Details

    • getPrefix

      String getPrefix()
      If the point of completion was at the end of a potential identifier, this string contains the text of that identifier.
      Returns:
      the prefix text up to the point of completion

    • getLength

      int getLength()
      Returns the length of the completion point.

    • containsName

      boolean containsName(IASTName name)
      Returns true if this completion node contains a IASTCompletionNode.CompletionNameEntry with the given name.

      6.4

    • getNames

      IASTName[] getNames()
      Returns a list of names that fit in this context. If doing computations based on the name's parent, prefer calling getEntries() instead and obtaining the parent from there.

    • getEntries

      IASTCompletionNode.CompletionNameEntry[] getEntries()
      Returns a list of names that fir in this context, along with their parents. See IASTCompletionNode.CompletionNameEntry for more details.
      Since:
      6.4

    • getTranslationUnit

      IASTTranslationUnit getTranslationUnit()
      Returns the translation unit for this completion.
