ScopeManager

The scope manager builds a multi-tree structure of nodes associated to a scope. These scopes capture the validity of certain (Variable-, Field-, Record-)declarations but are also used to identify outer scopes that should be the target of a jump (continue, break, throw).

Language frontends MUST call enterScope and leaveScope when they encounter nodes that modify the scope and resetToGlobal when they first handle a new TranslationUnitDeclaration. Afterwards the currently valid "stack" of scopes within the tree can be accessed.

If a language frontend encounters a Declaration node, it MUST call addDeclaration, rather than adding the declaration to the node itself. This ensures that all declarations are properly registered in the scope map and can be resolved later.

data class Alias(var from: Name, var to: Name)

Represents an alias with the name to for the particular name from.

data class ScopeExtraction(val scope: Scope?, val adjustedName: Name)

This class represents the result of the extractScope operation. It contains a scope object, if a scope was found and the adjustedName that is normalized if any aliases were found during scope extraction.

Properties

The current block, according to the scope that is currently active.

The current method in the active scope tree, this ensures that 'this' keywords are mapped correctly if a method contains a lambda or other types of function declarations

True, if the scope manager is currently in a FunctionScope.

open override val scope: Scope?

Returns the current scope for the ScopeProvider interface.

Functions

Link copied to clipboard
fun addDeclaration(declaration: Declaration?, addToAST: Boolean = true)

This function MUST be called when a language frontend first handles a Declaration. It adds a declaration to the scope manager, taking into account the currently active scope. Furthermore, it adds the declaration to the de.fraunhofer.aisec.cpg.graph.DeclarationHolder that is associated with the current scope through ValueDeclarationScope.addValueDeclaration and StructureDeclarationScope.addStructureDeclaration.

Link copied to clipboard
fun addTypedef(typedef: TypedefDeclaration, scope: ValueDeclarationScope? = globalScope)

Adds typedefs to a ValueDeclarationScope. The language frontend needs to decide on the scope of the typedef. Most likely, typedefs are global. Therefore, the GlobalScope is set as default.

Link copied to clipboard
fun enterScope(nodeToScope: Node)

This function, in combination with leaveScope is the main interaction point with the scope manager for language frontends. Every time a language frontend handles a node that begins a new scope, this function needs to be called. Appropriate scopes will then be created on-the-fly, if they do not exist.

Link copied to clipboard

This function extracts a scope for the Name, e.g. if the name is fully qualified (wrapped in a ScopeExtraction object. null is returned if a scope was specified, but does not exist as a Scope object.

fun extractScope(name: Name, location: PhysicalLocation? = null, scope: Scope? = currentScope): ScopeManager.ScopeExtraction?

This function extracts a scope for the Name, e.g. if the name is fully qualified. null is returned, if no scope can be extracted.

fun filterScopes(predicate: (Scope) -> Boolean): List<Scope>

Retrieves all unique scopes that satisfy the condition specified in predicate, independently of their hierarchy.

Link copied to clipboard
inline fun <T : Scope> firstScopeIsInstanceOrNull(searchScope: Scope? = currentScope): T?

Tries to find the first scope that is an instance of the scope type T. Calls firstScopeOrNull internally.

Link copied to clipboard
fun firstScopeOrNull(searchScope: Scope? = currentScope, predicate: Predicate<Scope>): Scope?

This function tries to find the first scope that satisfies the condition specified in predicate. It starts searching in the searchScope, moving up-wards using the Scope.parent attribute.

Link copied to clipboard

This function retrieves the LabelStatement associated with the labelString. This depicts the feature of some languages to attach a label to a point in the source code and use it as the target for control flow manipulation, e.g. BreakStatement, GotoStatement.

Link copied to clipboard
fun getRecordForName(name: Name, language: Language<*>?): RecordDeclaration?

Retrieves the RecordDeclaration for the given name in the given scope.

Link copied to clipboard
Link copied to clipboard
fun leaveScope(nodeToLeave: Node): Scope?

The counter-part of enterScope. Language frontends need to call this function, when the scope of the currently processed AST node ends. There MUST have been a corresponding enterScope call with the same nodeToLeave, otherwise the scope-tree might be corrupted.

Link copied to clipboard
fun lookupScope(node: Node): Scope?

This function returns the Scope associated with a node.

This function looks up scope by its FQN. This only works for NameScopes

Link copied to clipboard
fun lookupSymbolByName(name: Name, language: Language<*>?, location: PhysicalLocation? = null, startScope: Scope? = currentScope, predicate: (Declaration) -> Boolean? = null): List<Declaration>

This function tries to convert a Node.name into a Symbol and then performs a lookup of this symbol. This can either be an "unqualified lookup" if name is not qualified or a "qualified lookup" if Name.isQualified is true. In the unqualified case the lookup starts in startScope, in the qualified case we use extractScope to find the appropriate scope and need to restrict our search to this particular scope.

Link copied to clipboard
fun lookupSymbolByNameOfNode(node: Node, scope: Scope? = node.scope, predicate: (Declaration) -> Boolean? = null): List<Declaration>

A convenience function to call lookupSymbolByName with the properties of node. The arguments scope and predicate are forwarded.

Link copied to clipboard
fun lookupUniqueTypeSymbolByName(name: Name, language: Language<*>?, startScope: Scope?): DeclaresType?

This function tries to look up the symbol contained in name (using lookupSymbolByName) and returns a DeclaresType node, if this name resolved to something which declares a type.
