Fields
Inherited fields
| ast | from IRGeneratedVariable | |
| func | from IRVariable | |
| type | from IRGeneratedVariable |
Predicates
| getBaseString | INTERNAL: Do not use. |
| getTag | Gets the “tag” object that differentiates this temporary variable from other temporary variables generated for the same AST. |
| getUniqueId | Gets an identifier string for the variable. This identifier is unique within the function. |
Inherited predicates
| getAST | DEPRECATED: Alias for getAst | from IRGeneratedVariable |
| getAst | Gets the AST node that declared this variable, or that introduced this variable as part of the AST-to-IR translation. | from IRGeneratedVariable |
| getEnclosingFunction | Gets the function that references this variable. | from IRVariable |
| getEnclosingIRFunction | Gets the IR for the function that references this variable. | from IRVariable |
| getIRType | Gets the language-neutral type of the variable. | from IRVariable |
| getLanguageType | Gets the type of the variable. | from IRGeneratedVariable |
| getLocation | Gets the source location of this variable. | from IRVariable |
| getLocationString | INTERNAL: Do not use. | from IRGeneratedVariable |
| getType | Gets the type of the variable. | from IRVariable |
| isReadOnly | Holds if this variable’s value cannot be changed within a function. Currently used for string literals, but could also apply to | from IRVariable |
| toString | Gets a textual representation of this element. | from IRGeneratedVariable |
