Predicates

additionalLambdaFlowStep	Extra data-flow steps needed for lambda flow analysis.
allowParameterReturnInSelf	Holds if flow is allowed to pass from parameter `p` and back to itself as a side-effect, resulting in a summary from `p` to itself.
clearsContent	Holds if values stored inside content `c` are cleared at node `n`.
compatibleTypes	Holds if `t1` and `t2` are compatible, that is, whether data can flow from a node of type `t1` to a node of type `t2`.
expectsContent	Holds if the value that is being tracked is expected to be stored inside content `c` at node `n`.
forceHighPrecision	Holds if access paths with `c` at their head always should be tracked at high precision. This disables adaptive access path precision for such access paths.
getAUse	Gets a use of the instruction `instr` that is not ignored for dataflow purposes.
getAnOutNode	Gets a node that can read the value returned from `call` with return kind `kind`.
getContentApprox	Gets an approximated value for content `c`.
getInstructionType	Gets the type of the instruction `instr`.
getNodeType	Gets the type of `n` used for type pruning.
getOperandType	Gets the type of the operand `op`.
instructionForFullyConvertedCall	Gets the instruction that represents the first use of the value of `call` following a sequence of conversion-like instructions.
isArgumentNode	Holds if `arg` is an `ArgumentNode` of `c` with position `pos`.
isParameterNode	Holds if `p` is a `ParameterNode` of `c` with position `pos`.
jumpStep	Holds if data can flow from `node1` to `node2` in a way that loses the calling context. For example, this would happen with flow through a global or static variable.
lambdaCall	Holds if `call` is a lambda call of kind `kind` where `receiver` is the lambda expression.
lambdaCreation	Holds if `creation` is an expression that creates a lambda of kind `kind` for `c`.
localMustFlowStep
nodeGetEnclosingCallable	Gets the callable in which this node occurs.
nodeHasInstruction
nodeHasOperand
nodeIsHidden	Holds if `n` should be hidden from path explanations.
operandForFullyConvertedCall	Gets the operand that represents the use of the value of `call` following a sequence of conversion-like instructions, if a unique operand exists.
ppReprType	Gets a string representation of a type returned by `getNodeType`.
readStep	Holds if data can flow from `node1` to `node2` via a read of `f`. Thus, `node1` references an object with a field `f` whose value ends up in `node2`.
simpleOutNode	Holds if `node` represents the output node for `call`.
storeStep	Holds if data can flow from `node1` to `node2` via an assignment to `f`. Thus, `node2` references an object with a field `f` that contains the value of `node1`.
storeStepImpl	Holds if data can flow from `node1` to `node2` via an assignment to `f`. Thus, `node2` references an object with a field `f` that contains the value of `node1`.

Classes

ArgumentNode	A data flow node that occurs as the argument of a call and is passed as-is to the callable. Instance arguments (`this` pointer) and read side effects on parameters are also included.
CastNode	A node that performs a type cast.
ContentApprox	An approximated `Content`.
DataFlowCall	A function call relevant for data flow.
DirectPosition
GlobalLikeVariable	A variable that behaves like a global variable.
IndirectionPosition
InstructionNode0	An instruction, viewed as a node in a data flow graph.
Node0Impl
OperandNode0	An operand, viewed as a node in a data flow graph.
OutNode	A data flow node that represents the output of a call.
Position
ReturnIndirectionNode
ReturnKind	A return kind. A return kind describes how a value can be returned from a callable. For C++, this is simply a function return.
ReturnNode	A data flow node that occurs as the result of a `ReturnStmt`.

Aliases

ArgumentPosition	An argument position represented by an integer.
DataFlowCallable	A function that may contain code or a variable that may contain itself. When flow crosses from one enclosing callable to another, the interprocedural data-flow library discards call contexts and inserts a node in the big-step relation used for human-readable path explanations.
DataFlowExpr	A C/C++ expression.
DataFlowType	A C/C++ type.
LambdaCallKind	The trivial type with a single element.
ParameterPosition	A parameter position represented by an integer.
