Cpp.EnumSpecifier Class

Namespace: Cpp
Superclasses: AstNodeProperties

Represents the enum_specifier nodes in the syntax tree of your code

Since R2026a

Description

EnumSpecifier class represents the C++ syntax node enum_specifier in your code and contains predicates to query properties and children of this node.

Syntaxes

This class defines these predicates that act on the objects of this class. In addition, objects of this class can access the predicates defined by the base class AstNodeProperties. An object of this class is an object of AstNodeProperties class.

Predicates	Description
`is(required EnumSpecifier &es)`	Finds syntax nodes of the type `EnumSpecifier` in your C++ code and returns them as `es`. An `EnumSpecifier` represents an enumeration declaration or definition.
`isa(Cpp.Node.Node node)`	Checks if `node` is an `EnumSpecifier`. Use this relation if you want to negate the condition (for example: `not Cpp.EnumSpecifier.isa(n)`).
`cast(Cpp.Node.Node node, required EnumSpecifier &cast)`	Finds syntax nodes of the type `EnumSpecifier` from the nodes in `node`. Retrieval occurs if `node` is compatible with the `EnumSpecifier` type. Use this relation if you need further `EnumSpecifier` properties.
`name(EnumSpecifier self, Cpp.Node.Node &child)`	Matches the name of the enumeration. For example, in `enum Status { OK, Error };`, this predicate matches `Status`.
`base(EnumSpecifier self, Cpp.Node.Node &child)`	Matches the underlying type of the enumeration, when specified. For example, in `enum Color : int { Red, Green, Blue };`, this predicate matches the `: int` part.
`body(EnumSpecifier self, Cpp.Node.Node &child)`	Matches the body of the enumeration. For example, in `enum Direction { Left, Right };`, this predicate matches the enumerator list `{ Left, Right }`.
`attributeSpecifier(EnumSpecifier self, Cpp.Node.Node &child)`	Matches an attribute specifier applied to the enumeration. For example, in `enum [[deprecated]] OldEnum { Value };`, this predicate matches `[[deprecated]]`.
`isEnclosedInEnumSpecifier(Cpp.Node.Node child)`	Checks if `child` appears inside an `EnumSpecifier`.
`getEnclosingEnumSpecifier(Cpp.Node.Node child, required EnumSpecifier &parent)`	Finds the nearest enclosing `EnumSpecifier` ancestor of `child` and returns it as `parent`.
