Direct supertypes

Indirect supertypes

Known direct subtypes

    Inherited predicates

    canAccessClass

    Holds if a base class base of derived is accessible at this (N4140 11.2/4). When this holds, and derived has only one base subobject of type base, code in this can implicitly convert a pointer to derived into a pointer to base. Conversely, if such a conversion is possible then this predicate holds.

    from AccessHolder
    canAccessMember

    Holds if a non-static member member is accessible at this when named in a class derived that is derived from or equal to the declaring class of member (N4140 11.2/5 and 11.4).

    from AccessHolder
    couldAccessMember

    Holds if a hypothetical non-static member of memberClass with access specifier memberAccess is accessible at this when named in a class derived that is derived from or equal to memberClass (N4140 11.2/5 and 11.4).

    from AccessHolder
    explain

    Gets a detailed string representation explaining the AST of this type (with all specifiers and nested constructs such as pointers). This is intended to help debug queries and is a very expensive operation; not to be used in production queries.

    from UserType
    findRootCause

    Gets the source of this element: either itself or a macro that expanded to this element.

    from Element
    fromSource

    Holds if this element may be from source. This predicate holds for all elements, except for those in the dummy file, whose name is the empty string. The dummy file contains declarations that are built directly into the compiler.

    from Element
    getADeclaration

    Gets a child declaration within this user-defined type.

    from UserType
    getADeclarationEntry

    Gets a declaration entry corresponding to this declaration. See the comment above this class for an explanation of the relationship between Declaration and DeclarationEntry.

    from UserType
    getADeclarationLocation

    Gets the location of a declaration entry corresponding to this declaration.

    from UserType
    getAFile

    Gets a file where this element occurs.

    from Declaration
    getANameQualifier

    Gets a name qualifier for which this is the qualifying namespace or user-defined type. For example: class X is the NameQualifyingElement and X:: is the NameQualifier.

    from NameQualifyingElement
    getAPrimaryQlClass

    Gets the name of a primary CodeQL class to which this element belongs.

    from UserType
    getASpecifierfrom UserType
    getATemplateArgument

    Gets a template argument used to instantiate this declaration from a template. When called on a template, this will return a template parameter type for both typed and non-typed parameters.

    from Declaration
    getATemplateArgumentKind

    Gets a template argument used to instantiate this declaration from a template. When called on a template, this will return a non-typed template parameter value.

    from Declaration
    getATypeNameUse

    Gets as many places as possible where this type is used by name in the source after macros have been replaced (in particular, therefore, this will find type name uses caused by macros). Note that all type name uses within instantiations are currently excluded - this is too draconian in the absence of indexing prototype instantiations of functions, and is likely to improve in the future. At present, the method takes the conservative approach of giving valid type name uses, but not necessarily all type name uses.

    from Type
    getAlignment

    Gets the alignment of this type in bytes.

    from Type
    getAnAttribute

    Gets an attribute of this type.

    from Type
    getDeclaringType

    Gets the class where this member is declared, if it is a member. For templates, both the template itself and all instantiations of the template are considered to have the same declaring class.

    from Declaration
    getDefinition

    Gets the declaration entry corresponding to this declaration that is a definition, if any.

    from UserType
    getDefinitionLocation

    Gets the location of the definition, if any.

    from UserType
    getDescription

    Gets a description of this Declaration for display purposes.

    from Declaration
    getEnclosingAccessHolder

    Gets the nearest enclosing AccessHolder.

    from UserType
    getEnclosingElement

    Gets the closest Element enclosing this one.

    from Element
    getEnclosingFunction

    Gets the function that directly encloses this type (if any).

    from UserType
    getFile

    Gets the primary file where this element occurs.

    from Element
    getLocation

    Gets the preferred location of this declaration, if any.

    from UserType
    getName

    Gets the name of this type.

    from UserType
    getNamespace

    Gets the innermost namespace which contains this declaration.

    from Declaration
    getNumberOfTemplateArguments

    Gets the number of template arguments for this declaration.

    from Declaration
    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
    getPointerIndirectionLevel

    Gets the pointer indirection level of this type.

    from Type
    getPrimaryQlClasses

    Gets a comma-separated list of the names of the primary CodeQL classes to which this element belongs.

    from ElementBase
    getQualifiedName

    Gets the name of the declaration, fully qualified with its namespace and declaring type.

    from Declaration
    getSimpleName

    Gets the simple name of this type, without any template parameters. For example if the name of the type is "myType<int>", the simple name is just "myType".

    from UserType
    getSize

    Gets the size of this type in bytes.

    from Type
    getTemplateArgument

    Gets the ith template argument used to instantiate this declaration from a template.

    from Declaration
    getTemplateArgumentKind

    Gets the ith template argument value used to instantiate this declaration from a template. When called on a template, this will return the ith template parameter value if it exists.

    from Declaration
    getUnderlyingType

    Gets this type after typedefs have been resolved.

    from Type
    getUnspecifiedType

    Gets this type after specifiers have been deeply stripped and typedefs have been resolved.

    from Type
    hasDeclaringType

    Holds if this declaration is a member of a class/struct/union.

    from Declaration
    hasDefinition

    Holds if the declaration has a definition.

    from Declaration
    hasGlobalName

    Holds if this declaration has the given name in the global namespace.

    from Declaration
    hasGlobalOrStdName

    Holds if this declaration has the given name in the global namespace or the std namespace.

    from Declaration
    hasGlobalOrStdOrBslName

    Holds if this declaration has the given name in the global namespace, the std namespace or the bsl namespace. We treat std and bsl as the same in some of our models.

    from Declaration
    hasNamefrom UserType
    hasQualifiedName

    Holds if this declaration has a fully-qualified name with a name-space component of namespaceQualifier, no declaring type, and a base name of baseName.

    from Declaration
    hasQualifiedName

    Holds if this declaration has a fully-qualified name with a name-space component of namespaceQualifier, a declaring type of typeQualifier, and a base name of baseName. Template parameters and arguments are stripped from all components. Missing components are "".

    from Declaration
    hasSpecifierfrom UserType
    inMemberOrFriendOf

    Holds if this can access private members of class c.

    from AccessHolder
    internal_getAnAdditionalSpecifier

    Internal – should be protected when QL supports such a flag. Subtypes override this to recursively get specifiers that are not attached directly to this @type in the database but arise through type aliases such as typedef and decltype.

    from Type
    involvesReference

    Holds if this type involves a reference.

    from Type
    involvesTemplateParameter

    Holds if this type involves a template parameter.

    from Type
    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
    isAnonymous

    Holds if this type is anonymous.

    from UserType
    isConst

    Holds if this type is const.

    from Type
    isDeeplyConst

    Holds if this type is constant and only contains constant types. For instance, a char *const is a constant type, but not deeply constant, because while the pointer can’t be modified the character can. The type const char *const* is a deeply constant type though - both the pointer and what it points to are immutable.

    from Type
    isDeeplyConstBelow

    Holds if this type is constant and only contains constant types, excluding the type itself. It is implied by Type.isDeeplyConst() and is just used to implement that predicate. For example, const char *const is deeply constant and deeply constant below, but const char * is only deeply constant below (the pointer can be changed, but not the underlying char). char *const is neither (it is just const).

    from Type
    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
    isLocal

    Holds if this is a local type (that is, a type that has a directly-enclosing function).

    from UserType
    isMember

    Holds if this declaration is a member of a class/struct/union.

    from Declaration
    isStatic

    Holds if this declaration is static.

    from Declaration
    isTopLevel

    Holds if this declaration is a top-level declaration.

    from Declaration
    isVolatile

    Holds if this type is volatile.

    from Type
    refersTo

    Holds if this type refers to type t (by default, a type always refers to itself).

    from Type
    refersToDirectly

    Holds if this type refers to type t directly.

    from Type
    resolveTypedefs

    Gets this type with any typedefs resolved. For example, given typedef C T, this would resolve const T& to const C&. Note that this will only work if the resolved type actually appears on its own elsewhere in the program.

    from Type
    stripTopLevelSpecifiers

    Gets this type after any top-level specifiers and typedefs have been stripped.

    from Type
    stripType

    Gets the type stripped of pointers, references and cv-qualifiers, and resolving typedefs. For example, given typedef const C&amp; T, stripType returns C.

    from Type
    toString

    Gets a textual representation of this element.

    from Declaration
