Class Initializer

A C/C++ declaration initializer. For example the initializers 1, 2 and 3 in the following code:

int myVariable = 1;

enum myEnum {
  MYENUMCONST = 2
};

void myFunction(int param = 3) {
  ...
}

But not 4 in the following code:

int myUninitializedVariable;
myUninitializedVariable = 4;

Instead, this is an Assignment.

Known direct subtypes

Predicates

fromSource	Holds if this initializer is explicit in the source.
getAPrimaryQlClass	Gets the name of a primary CodeQL class to which this element belongs.
getControlFlowScope	Gets the function containing this control-flow node.
getDeclaration	Gets the variable or enum constant being initialized.
getEnclosingStmt	Gets the smallest statement containing this control-flow node.
getExpr	Gets the initializing expression.
getLocation	Gets the primary location of this element.
isBraced	Holds if the initializer used the C++ braced initializer notation.
toString	Gets a textual representation of this element.

Inherited predicates

findRootCause	Gets the source of this element: either itself or a macro that expanded to this element.	from Element
getAFalseSuccessor	Gets a node such that the control-flow edge `(this, result)` may be taken when this expression is false.	from ControlFlowNode
getAPredecessor	Gets a direct predecessor of this control-flow node, if any.	from ControlFlowNode
getASuccessor	Gets a direct successor of this control-flow node, if any.	from ControlFlowNode
getATrueSuccessor	Gets a node such that the control-flow edge `(this, result)` may be taken when this expression is true.	from ControlFlowNode
getBasicBlock	Gets the `BasicBlock` containing this control-flow node.	from ControlFlowNode
getEnclosingElement	Gets the closest `Element` enclosing this one.	from Element
getFile	Gets the primary file where this element occurs.	from Element
getParentScope	Gets the parent scope of this `Element`, if any. A scope is a `Type` (`Class` / `Enum`), a `Namespace`, a `BlockStmt`, a `Function`, or certain kinds of `Statement`.	from Element
getPrimaryQlClasses	Gets a comma-separated list of the names of the primary CodeQL classes to which this element belongs.	from ElementBase
isAffectedByMacro	Holds if this element is affected in any way by a macro. All elements that are totally or partially generated by a macro are included, so this is a super-set of `isInMacroExpansion`.	from Element
isCondition	Holds if this node is the top-level expression of a conditional statement, meaning that `this.getATrueSuccessor()` or `this.getAFalseSuccessor()` will have a result.	from ControlFlowNode
isFromTemplateInstantiation	Holds if this `Element` is a part of a template instantiation (but not the template itself).	from Element
isFromUninstantiatedTemplate	Holds if this `Element` is part of a template `template` (not if it is part of an instantiation of `template`). This means it is represented in the database purely as syntax and without guarantees on the presence or correctness of type-based operations such as implicit conversions.	from Element
isInMacroExpansion	Holds if this element comes from a macro expansion. Only elements that are entirely generated by a macro are included - for elements that partially come from a macro, see `isAffectedByMacro`.	from Element
