Method Details
- 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
