Known direct subtypes

Predicates

contains	Whether this contains `inner` syntactically
containsInScope	Whether this contains `inner` syntactically and `inner` has the same scope as `this`
getAChildNode	Gets a child node of this node in the AST. This predicate exists to aid exploration of the AST and other experiments. The child-parent relation may not be meaningful. For a more meaningful relation in terms of dependency use Expr.getASubExpression(), Stmt.getASubStatement(), Stmt.getASubExpression() or Scope.getAStmt().
getAFlowNode	Gets a flow node corresponding directly to this node. NOTE: For some statements and other purely syntactic elements, there may not be a `ControlFlowNode`
getLocation	Gets the location for this AST node
getParentNode	Gets the parent node of this node in the AST. This predicate exists to aid exploration of the AST and other experiments. The child-parent relation may not be meaningful. For a more meaningful relation in terms of dependency use Expr.getASubExpression(), Stmt.getASubStatement(), Stmt.getASubExpression() or Scope.getAStmt() applied to the parent.
getScope	Gets the scope that this node occurs in
isArtificial	Whether this syntactic element is artificial, that is it is generated by the compiler and is not present in the source

Inherited predicates

Gets a textual representation of this element.
