CXCursorKind

A declaration whose specific kind is not exposed via this interface.

Unexposed declarations have the same operations as any other kind of declaration; one can extract their location information, spelling, find their definitions, etc. However, the specific kind of the declaration is not reported.

A C or C++ struct.

A C or C++ union.

A C++ class.

An enumeration.

A field (in C) or non-static data member (in C++) in a struct, union, or C++ class.

An Objective-C \@interface.

An Objective-C \@protocol declaration.

An Objective-C \@property declaration.

An Objective-C instance variable.

An Objective-C instance method.

An Objective-C class method.

An Objective-C \@implementation.

An Objective-C \@implementation for a category.

A typedef.

A C++ class method.

A C++ namespace.

A linkage specification, e.g. 'extern "C"'.

A C++ constructor.

A C++ destructor.

A C++ conversion function.

A C++ template type parameter.

A C++ non-type template parameter.

A C++ template template parameter.

A C++ function template.

A C++ class template.

A C++ class template partial specialization.

A C++ namespace alias declaration.

A C++ using directive.

A C++ using declaration.

A C++ alias declaration

An Objective-C \@synthesize definition.

An Objective-C \@dynamic definition.

An access specifier.

A reference to a type declaration.

A type reference occurs anywhere where a type is named but not declared. For example, given:

\code typedef unsigned size_type; size_type size; \endcode

The typedef is a declaration of size_type (CXCursor_TypedefDecl), while the type of the variable "size" is referenced. The cursor referenced by the type of size is the typedef for size_type.

A reference to a class template, function template, template template parameter, or class template partial specialization.

A reference to a namespace or namespace alias.

A reference to a member of a struct, union, or class that occurs in some non-expression context, e.g., a designated initializer.

A reference to a labeled statement.

This cursor kind is used to describe the jump to "start_over" in the goto statement in the following example:

\code start_over: ++counter;

goto start_over; \endcode

A label reference cursor refers to a label statement.

A reference to a set of overloaded functions or function templates that has not yet been resolved to a specific function or function template.

An overloaded declaration reference cursor occurs in C++ templates where a dependent name refers to a function. For example:

\code template<typename T> void swap(T&, T&);

struct X { ... }; void swap(X&, X&);

template<typename T> void reverse(T* first, T* last) { while (first < last - 1) { swap(*first, *--last); ++first; } }

struct Y { }; void swap(Y&, Y&); \endcode

Here, the identifier "swap" is associated with an overloaded declaration reference. In the template definition, "swap" refers to either of the two "swap" functions declared above, so both results will be available. At instantiation time, "swap" may also refer to other functions found via argument-dependent lookup (e.g., the "swap" function at the end of the example).

The functions \c clang_getNumOverloadedDecls() and \c clang_getOverloadedDecl() can be used to retrieve the definitions referenced by this cursor.

A reference to a variable that occurs in some non-expression context, e.g., a C++ lambda capture list.

An expression whose specific kind is not exposed via this interface.

Unexposed expressions have the same operations as any other kind of expression; one can extract their location information, spelling, children, etc. However, the specific kind of the expression is not reported.

An expression that refers to some value declaration, such as a function, variable, or enumerator.

An expression that refers to a member of a struct, union, class, Objective-C class, etc.

An expression that calls a function.

An expression that sends a message to an Objective-C object or class.

An expression that represents a block literal.

An integer literal.

The GNU address of label extension, representing &&label.

This is the GNU Statement Expression extension: ({int X=4; X;})

Represents a C11 generic selection.

Implements the GNU __null extension, which is a name for a null pointer constant that has integral type (e.g., int or long) and is the same size and alignment as a pointer.

The __null extension is typically only used by system headers, which define NULL as __null in C++ rather than using 0 (which is an integer that may not match the size of a pointer).

C++'s dynamic_cast<> expression.

C++'s reinterpret_cast<> expression.

Represents an explicit C++ type conversion that uses "functional" notion (C++ expr.type.conv).

Represents a C++0x pack expansion that produces a sequence of expressions.

A pack expansion expression contains a pattern (which itself is an expression) followed by an ellipsis. For example:

\code template<typename F, typename ...Types> void forward(F f, Types &&...args) { f(static_cast<Types&&>(args)...); } \endcode

Represents an expression that computes the length of a parameter pack.

\code template<typename ...Types> struct count { static const unsigned value = sizeof...(Types); }; \endcode
