Cpp.DependentType Class

Namespace: Cpp
Superclasses: AstNodeProperties

Represents the dependent_type nodes in the syntax tree of your code

Since R2026a

Description

DependentType class represents the C++ syntax node dependent_type in your code and contains predicates to query properties and children of this node.

Syntaxes

This class defines these predicates that act on the objects of this class. In addition, objects of this class can access the predicates defined by the base class AstNodeProperties. An object of this class is an object of AstNodeProperties class.

Predicates	Description
`is(required DependentType &dt)`	Finds syntax nodes of the type `DependentType` in your C++ code and returns them as `dt`. A `DependentType` represents a type whose meaning depends on a template parameter context.
`isa(Cpp.Node.Node node)`	Checks if `node` is a `DependentType`. Use this relation if you want to negate the condition (for example: `not Cpp.DependentType.isa(n)`).
`cast(Cpp.Node.Node node, required DependentType &cast)`	Finds syntax nodes of the type `DependentType` from the nodes in `node`. Retrieval occurs if `node` is compatible with the `DependentType` type. Use this relation if you need further `DependentType` properties.
`typeSpecifier(DependentType self, Cpp.Node.Node &child)`	Matches the dependent type specifier. For example, in `typename T::type`, this predicate matches the `type` portion of the dependent type.
`isEnclosedInDependentType(Cpp.Node.Node child)`	Checks if `child` appears inside a `DependentType`.
`getEnclosingDependentType(Cpp.Node.Node child, required DependentType &parent)`	Finds the nearest enclosing `DependentType` ancestor of `child` and returns it as `parent`.
