[cfe-dev] SourceLocation of FunctionDecl

[Nimrod Partush]

I see your point. I'll try and have a go at solving the SourceLocation
problem. Could you point me to the relevant code parts? (i'm assuming the
problem is in the AST creation part and not specifically in the getLocation
functions)

p.s. another problem:

When asking for the qualifiers of:

const int f();

I get null. Am i doing something wrong?


Thanks.
