<br/>
<p>I have decided to follow up the advice of Manuel and I have created a MatchFinder object with all the matchers and a single MatchCallback object. So now, I'm in my run() method and I want to know which matcher was bound. So I think the only way to know this is to ask:<br/>
if (Result.Nodes.getNodeAs<clang::CXXConstructorDecl>("matcher1")){<br /> ...<br /> }<br /> else if(Result.Nodes.getNodeAs<clang::CXXRecordDecl>("matcher2")){<br /> ... <br /> }<br/>
Notice that I'm retrieving different classes of nodes (clang::CXXConstructorDecl, clang::CXXRecordDecl...) In spite of this fact, I want to process all the nodes in the same way except from a subtle difference and I was asking myself if there is a better way I can do something like this:<br/>
if (Result.Nodes.getNodeAs<clang::CXXConstructorDecl>("matcher1")){<br /> ...<br /> process(Result.Nodes.getNodeAs<clang::CXXConstructorDecl>("matcher1"))<br/>
}<br /> else if(Result.Nodes.getNodeAs<clang::CXXRecordDecl>("matcher2")){<br /> ...<br /> process(Result.Nodes.getNodeAs<clang::CXXRecordDecl>("matcher2"))<br /> }<br /> ...</p>
<p>template<typename T><br /> void process(const T* Node){<br /> ...<br /> }</p>

Hi,<br/>
Thanks for all your support. I'm going to respond all your contributions little by little:</p>
<div class="im"><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid #000083; margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><p><span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">You can execute Matcher1 first, and when it returns, you start executing Matcher2. I'm not sure what your problem is exactly. (Of course, this will also mean that you will traverse the whole AST twice, which can potentially be very expensive.)</span></p>
</blockquote></div><p>Ok. What I don't understand quite well is the order in the execution.<br/>
1. I create a MatchFinder.<br /> 2. Then, I add two different matchers to the same callback.<br /> 3. I call run. <br/>
My questions are:<br /> 1. How many times is called the run method? Every time the MatchFinder finds a node to match?<br /> 2. The object callback I add to MatchFinder is created more than once? When it is deleted? The problem is that I create the object callback with an argument (a constructor method with an argument, not the default constructor) and store it in a variable member. However, when the run method executes, the value of the variable member is lost and I can't understand the problem.</p>
<div class="im"><br /><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid #000083; margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><p><span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">Sorry, missed the comment in one of your more recent emails. So you basically want all matches by matcher1 to be found before all matchers by matcher2. I think the easiest way to do this is just have two MatchFinder classes. Add matcher1 and its callback to the first MatchFinder and call run(). Add matcher2 and its callback to the second MatchFinder and call run() after the first run() returns. You won't have to reparse the file but you will have to traverse the AST twice. There's not much you can do about this given the order you want. However, if the second matcher has no deps on the information collected by matcher1 you could just get away with a single MatchFinder and two callbacks that just store their finds in two vectors which you process after run returns</span></p>
</blockquote><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid #000083; margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><p><span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">I'm not sure what order you're interested in but you can create two match callbacks one to use for each matcher. The callbacks will be called in the order the nodes are found in the tree by doing a depth-first pre-order traversal as is usual for RecursiveASTVisitor. If both matchers match a given node, the callbacks are called in the order they are registered. </span><br style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;" /> <br style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;" /><span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">What sort of order are you looking for? </span></p>
</blockquote></div><p>I understand what you have explained until you say "two callbacks". Why could I want to have two different callbacks? Could you explain better "<span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">if the second matcher </span><span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">has no deps on the information collected by matcher1"?</span></p>
<div class="im"><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid #000083; margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br /><div style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">What is often faster is to produce a superset of the information needed during the traversal / match phase, and then combine / filter the results after everything's done...</div></blockquote></div><div>That is a good solution, I suppose. I will have to study my case more in detail to determine whether this fit my problem or not. But, do you store all that information in global variables or in the callback object?</div><div class="im"><br /> <br /><p>.</p>
<blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid #000083; margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><p><span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px;">You can just count how many times your match callback is called and then print that number after run() returns. </span></p>
</blockquote></div><p>Again, my problem is that I don't $when the match callback is called. <br/>
I hope I can end up getting the usage of all this with your help.<br/>
Pedro.</p>

If you just want to print information on certain types of nodes, you could use a RecursiveASTVisitor for that.<br/>
However, if what you're looking for is a little more complex then matchers may be what you want after all.<br/>
As for the two classes, you want to use tooling::MatchFinder as shown in the tutorial. The other is just an implementation detail of the match finding code.<br/>
newASTConsumer() is a function that's required to be defined for objects passed to newFrontendActionFactory(). You don't need to implement it. It's implemented by MatchFinder. Again, it's an implementation detail you don't need to worry about at this point.<br/>
The use of ASTConsumers is not necessary if you're using MatchFinder and ClangTool as described in the tutorial. MatchFinder is an abstraction around RecursiveASTVisitor so all that stuff in RecursiveASTVisitor you'd normally have to use is actually hidden away.<br/>
I think you should first decide which route you want to go: MatchFinder or RecursiveASTVisitor. The first question I'd ask is: how hard is it to find the nodes I want to print info on in the AST. If all I want is every for loop that's easy. If I want for loops within member functions of a specific class, that's hard and an excellent use case for ASTMatchers.</p>

return Tool.run(newFrontendActionFactory(&Finder));<br />}<br/>
However, now I want to create a object "Printer" with different features<br />depending on the arguments provided in command line. So I was thinking on<br />implement a factory method pattern to create a different LoopPrinter object:<br /> class OptionsFactory {<br />public:<br />LoopPrinter getOption() {<br />if(...)<br />return LoopPrinter(attribute1, attribute2);<br />else<br />return LoopPrinter(attribute1);<br />}<br />};<br/>
I was searching for a better solution and there are some things that I can't<br />completely understand.<br/>
- Why are there two classes MatchFinder:<br /><a href="http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1tooling_1_1MatchFinder.html" target="_blank">http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1tooling_1_1MatchFinder.html</a><br /> <a href="http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1ast__matchers_1_1MatchFinder" target="_blank">http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1ast__matchers_1_1MatchFinder</a>.<br />html<br/>
- What the method in ast_matchers:MatchFinder<br/>
clang::ASTConsumer<br /><<a href="http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1ASTConsumer.html%3E" target="_blank">http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1ASTConsumer.html></a> *<br/>
newASTConsumer<br /><<a href="http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1ast__matchers_1_1MatchFinder" target="_blank">http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1ast__matchers_1_1MatchFinder</a><br />.html#a4807049e6e39572d19ff127406df3d81> ()<br/>
is used for? I see we can 'associate' an ASTConsumer to the Frontend as in:<br /><a href="http://clang.llvm.org/docs/RAVFrontendAction.html" target="_blank">http://clang.llvm.org/docs/RAVFrontendAction.html</a><br/>
but, is this possible using Matchers? Would it have any sense to create an<br />ASTConsumer in my class OptionsFactory?<br/>
I have improved a lot since you last helped me, but clang is too big!<br/>
By the way, do you know how to use CommandLine? I posted a new thread<br/>
<a href="http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-dev/2013-May/029473.html" target="_blank">http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-dev/2013-May/029473.html</a><br/>
If you know how to solve that problem, please, let me know.<br/>
Thanks in advance,<br/>
Pedro.</p>

<br /><p>Just use the empty string for binding and getNodeAs :)</p>
<br /><p>That would potentially lead to confusion when there are more<br />nodes bound, but the programmer forgot to supply the proper name. In my<br />suggestion, the parameterless getNodeAs would have an assert to check there is<br /> exactly one node bound (and whose name is the default name).<br/>
If you put everything behind constants, I think it'll be easy enough to see<br />what's happening - and that's a generally good strategy anyway, as you get a<br />compile error if you mistype...<br />Thus, I think it'd not add enough value to special case the interface.</p>

<br /><p>Hehehe... I found the problem with<br />this. I was binding wrongly the matcher! I used a id in the matcher thas was<br />different from the id in the function that retrieves the nodes... I think this will be<br />a typical mistake for newbies...<br/>
Ah, yes, that happens a lot to me as well. Now<br />that I think about it, it might be worthwhile adding a parameterless .bind() and<br />.getNodeAs<T>() for situations where only one node is bound. Should be fairly<br /> trivial, but also not all that useful...<br/>
Just use the empty string for binding and getNodeAs :)</p>

<br /><p>Thanks both! Now I can see all this<br />much clearer and I have the enough knowledge to start out with clang.</p>
<br /><p>You're welcome. Good luck!</p>

<br /><p>And btw thanks a lot for all the great user support you're giving<br />here!</p>
<br /><p>Thank you, I'm happy to help. Clang is a great project!<br/>
As soon as the university term is over, I'm also planning on trying to<br />contribute code-wise, mainly to the Static Analyzer but I guess also on just about<br />anything that catches my attention. :) I'm quite excited - this is going to be the<br /> first open source project I contribute to.<br />Gabor</p>
