[cfe-users] finding in which function/method/scope a Decl is in, the parent so to say

[Richard Trieu via cfe-users]

It sounds like you want the DeclContext.  Use the function
Decl::getDeclContext() to get a DeclContext pointer.  See
http://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1DeclContext.html for details
about DeclContext.  DeclContext::isTranslationUnit() for globals and
DeclContext::isFunctionOrMethod() for function/method scope.  DeclContext
can also be cast to other Decl types, so for example you could use
dyn_cast<FunctionDecl> to get the function scope.
