Predicates

getAPrimaryQlClass

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

Inherited predicates

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
getAChild

Gets a child of this expression.

from Expr
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
getATemplateArgument

Gets a template argument for this call.

from FunctionCall
getATemplateArgumentKind

Gets a template argument value for this call.

from FunctionCall
getATrueSuccessor

Gets a node such that the control-flow edge (this, result) may be taken when this expression is true.

from ControlFlowNode
getActualType

Gets the type of this expression, after any implicit conversions and explicit casts, and after resolving typedefs.

from Expr
getAnArgument

Gets an argument for this call. To get the qualifier of this call, if any, use getQualifier().

from Call
getAnArgumentSubExpr

Gets the fully converted form of this expression, including all type casts and other conversions.

from Expr
getImplicitDestructorCall

Gets the nth compiler-generated destructor call that is performed after this expression, in order of destruction.

from Element
getParentWithConversions

Gets the parent of this expression, if any, in an alternative syntax tree that has Conversions as part of the tree.

from Expr
hasChild

Holds if e is the nth child of this expression.

from Expr
hasConversion

Holds if this expression has a conversion.

from Expr
hasExplicitConversion

Holds if this expression has an explicit conversion.

from Expr
hasGlobalQualifiedName

Holds if this element has a globally qualified name. For example, ::x is globally qualified. It is used to refer to x in the global namespace.

from NameQualifiableElement
hasImplicitConversion

Holds if this expression has an implicit conversion.

from Expr
hasImplicitTemplateArguments

Holds if any template arguments for this call are implicit / deduced.

from FunctionCall
hasLValueToRValueConversion

Holds if this expression has undergone an lvalue-to-rvalue conversion to extract its value. for example: y = x; The VariableAccess for x is a prvalue, and hasLValueToRValueConversion() holds because the value of x was loaded from the location of x. The VariableAccess for y is an lvalue, and hasLValueToRValueConversion() does not hold because the value of y was not extracted.

from Expr
hasQualifier

Holds if this call has a qualifier.

from Call
hasSuperQualifiedName

Holds if this element has a __super-qualified name. For example: __super::get(). Note: __super is non-standard C++ extension, only supported by some C++ compilers.

from NameQualifiableElement
hasTemplateArgumentList

Holds if a template argument list was provided for this call.

from FunctionCall
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
isCompilerGenerated

Holds if this is an auxiliary expression generated by the compiler.

from Expr
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
isConstant

Holds if this expression has a value that can be determined at compile time.

from Expr
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
isGLValueCategory

Holds if this expression is a glvalue. A glvalue is either an lvalue or an xvalue.

from Expr
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
isLValue

Holds if this expression is an lvalue, in the sense of having an address.

from Expr
isLValueCategory

Holds if this expression is an lvalue. An lvalue is an expression that represents a location, rather than a value. See [basic.lval] for more about lvalues.

from Expr
isOnlyFoundByADL

Holds if the target of this function call was found by argument-dependent lookup and wouldn’t have been found by any other means.

from FunctionCall
isPRValueCategory

Holds if this expression is a prvalue. A prvalue is an expression that represents a value, rather than a location. See [basic.lval] for more about prvalues.

from Expr
isParenthesised

Holds if this expression is parenthesised.

from Expr
isPure

Holds if this expression is side-effect free (conservative approximation). This predicate cannot be overridden; override mayBeImpure() instead.

from Expr
isRValueCategory

Holds if this expression is an rvalue. An rvalue is either a prvalue or an xvalue.

from Expr
isUnevaluated

Holds if this expression will not be evaluated because of its context, such as an expression inside a sizeof.

from Expr
isVirtual

Holds if this is a call to a virtual function.

from FunctionCall
isXValueCategory

Holds if this expression is an xvalue. An xvalue is a location whose lifetime is about to end (e.g. an rvalue reference returned from a function call). See [basic.lval] for more about xvalues.

from Expr
mayBeFromImplicitlyDeclaredFunction

Holds if this expression could be the return value of an implicitly declared function.

from Call
mayBeGloballyImpure

Holds if it is possible that the expression may be impure. If we are not sure, then it holds. Unlike mayBeImpure(), this predicate does not consider modifications to temporary local variables to be impure. If you call a function in which nothing may be globally impure then the function as a whole will have no side-effects, even if it mutates its own fresh stack variables.

from FunctionCall
mayBeImpure

Holds if it is possible that the expression may be impure. If we are not sure, then it holds.

from FunctionCall
passesByReference

Holds if this call passes the variable accessed by va by reference as the ith argument. The qualifier of a call to a member function is i = -1.

from Call
passesByReferenceNonConst

Holds if this call passes the variable accessed by va by reference to non-const data as the ith argument. The qualifier of a call to a member function is i = -1.

from Call
toString

Gets a textual representation of this function call.

from FunctionCall
