Module Specifier

Provides the Element class, which is the base class for all classes representing C or C++ program elements.

A C++ access specifier: public, protected, or private.

A C++11 alignas construct. For example the attribute in the following code: struct alignas(16) MyStruct { int x; }; Though it doesn’t use the attribute syntax, alignas(...) is presented as an Attribute for consistency with the [[align(...)]] attribute.

An attribute introduced by GNU’s __attribute__((name)) syntax, Microsoft’s __declspec(name) syntax, Microsoft’s [name] syntax, the C++11 standard [[name]] syntax, or the C++11 alignas syntax.

An argument to an Attribute. For example the argument “dllimport” on the attribute in the following code: __declspec(dllimport) void myFunction();

An attribute introduced by Microsoft’s __declspec(name) syntax. For example the attribute on the following declaration: __declspec(dllimport) void myFunction();

A GNU format attribute of the form __attribute__((format(archetype, format-index, first-arg))) that declares a function to accept a printf style format string. For example the attribute on the following declaration: int myPrintf(const char *format, ...) __attribute__((format(printf, 1, 2)));

A C/C++ function specifier: inline, virtual, or explicit.

An attribute introduced by GNU’s __attribute__((name)) syntax, for example: __attribute__((__noreturn__)).

An attribute introduced by Microsoft’s “[name]” syntax, for example “[SA_Pre(Deref=1,Access=SA_Read)]”.

A C/C++ specifier: friend, auto, register, static, extern, mutable, inline, virtual, or explicit.

An attribute introduced by the C++11 standard [[name]] syntax, for example: [[clang::fallthrough]].

A C/C++ storage class specifier: auto, register, static, extern, or mutable.
