HandlerInterface

fun interface HandlerInterface<S, T>

This functional interface specifies how a handler class should translate raw AST nodes into CPG nodes.

Parameters

S

the type of the translated CPG node

T

the type of the raw AST node

Functions

abstract fun handle(expr: T): S?

The returned CPG node type S should be as specific as possible to make it easier for the caller. For example, if a handler parses functions and methods, it should at least return a FunctionDeclaration and not just a Declaration.
