Thanks for the report!

I think this is a combination of 1) and 2) from above post (https://reviews.llvm.org/D112374#3650056).

I believe that hasType(asString()) is supposed to match the type as-written. The fact that it did not so for unqualified names is what this patch is fixing.

Can you confirm that this `NoPrincipalGetURI` matcher would, in clang version without this patch here, fail to match if you had rewritten the `GetUri` method to use a qualified name? Something like this:

From:

  nsIPrincipal *getURI();

To:

  ::nsIPrincipal *getURI();

Ie qualify with the global namespace or something equivalent that works in the Firefox codebase?

I believe that matching to the canonical type would be the simplest fix for that bug:

On mozilla-central/build/clang-plugin/NoPrincipalGetURI.cpp change from:

  anyOf(on(hasType(asString("class nsIPrincipal *"))),
        on(hasType(asString("class nsIPrincipal")))),

To:

  anyOf(on(hasType(hasCanonicalType(asString("class nsIPrincipal *")))),
        on(hasType(hasCanonicalType(asString("class nsIPrincipal"))))),

Ie nest the `asString` matcher inside a `hasCanonicalType` matcher.
