[cfe-dev] Matching method defined outside a class declaration

[Jesper Eskilson]

Hello,

I'm trying to write an AST matcher rule which is able to match method 
definitions. Given the following C++ source code:

> class B
> {
>   void foo();
>   void bar() {
>     int a_local_variable_in_bar;
>   }
> };
>
> void B::foo()
> {
>   int a_local_variable_in_foo;
> }
>
> B b
>
> int main()
> {
> }

I would like a matcher which can tell me where instances of B are 
created and also give me the definitions of its methods (in this case 
"foo" and "bar").

>   StatementMatcher m = constructExpr(
>       hasType(
>           recordDecl(isSameOrDerivedFrom("B"),
> hasMethod(methodDecl(isDefinition()).bind("method")))));

But it will only give me the definition of "bar", and not the defintion 
of "foo" which is declared outside the class.

If I cannot do this with matchers, is there a way to get to the 
definition of "foo" given the declaration of the class B?

Thanks,
