[cfe-dev] Expr walk up? Looking for Enum name not value?

[Lukas Vogel]

Hi,

If you use VisitEnumDecl(ed) you can use an iterator to loop over all
EnumConstantDecl and from those you can get the name with getNameAsString()
I implemented this myself just few days ago (if you want to take a look:
https://github.com/lukedirtwalker/Envision/blob/cppimport/CppImport/src/ClangAstVisitor.cpp#L321
 )

Cheers
