Re: [cfe-users] uniquely identifying names
Maybe I could expand a name into its full name and use that.
e.g.:
namespace bla { class myclass { void mymethod() { } } }
then the full name of mymethod would be bla::myclass::mymethod would be
unique enough to me (including filename).
Can I somehow get this out of it?

Always wondered what the latency of your webserver is? Or how much more
latency you get when you go through a proxy server/tor? The numbers
tell the tale and with HTTPing you know them!

Re: [cfe-users] uniquely identifying names
Do you want to identify the same entity across a valid program's various
source files? Across changes to that program? (what changes?)
If you want to do the former, then producing the mangled name of the entity
is probably what you want. (some part of the ABI code in Clang could give
you that, I would assume - but not sure exactly where)

[cfe-users] libclang: Spelling on typedefs lacks namespaces
Hi
Hope I picked the right place for this kind of problem, if not please
let me know.
I'm using libclang to parse header files and generate code from them. I
found that clang_getTypeSpelling() usually includes the namespace(s) a
type was declared in. However with the exception being typedefs (and
same for "using A = B"). Not sure if this is a bug or intended behavior,
but it seems at least inconsistent. I also couldn't really find a good
workaround for this. I'd have to manually figure out all typedefs (not
just pure typedefs, they could also be template parameters or whatever)
and then their originating namespaces. This sounds a bit cumbersome and
not really straight forward.
Minimal example:
namespace foo {
class Bar {
};
typedef Bar BarDef;
}
clang_getTypeSpelling on "Bar" (kind "Record") gives: "foo::Bar"
clang_getTypeSpelling on "BarDef" (kind "Typedef") gives: "BarDef" (<==
missing "foo::")
Any idea how to solve this problem? Am I missing something?
Thanks
Michael

Re: [cfe-users] uniquely identifying names
I don't know which API you're using, but
clang::NamedDecl::getQualifiedNameAsString seems to do what you want.
