[cfe-dev] I want to find the Result of the AST Parsing

[Journeyer J. Joh]

Thank you very much Alexander Kornienko! You replied to me so fast!

This would be very helpful for me!



But I'd like to also know where I need to look to find the result of
AST Parsing in the source code.

I tried to find it from 'ADecl' after 'P.ParseTopLevelDecl(ADecl)' in
the global function ParseAST(). But I couldn't find it there using
ddd.

Could somebody let me know where I need to look? (with gdb or ddd)

Thank you very much!
