Re: [cdt-dev] CPPFunctionType - method or function?

[Andrew Niefer <aniefer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Sergey,
As far as I remember, the implicit this
parameter for member functions is only considered for resolution of overloaded
functions.  This is really only because the set of function can contain
both members and nonmembers.  It is not considered in any other place
where we may be comparing function types.  This is handled by the
resolveFunction method without the function type knowning anything about
it.  

I'm afraid I'm too long out of things
to give any concrete advice.  I'd guess the getExpressionType is too
recursive to get anything from the method binding, which implies you will
need to either add a field to CPPFunctionType, or perhaps create a CPPMethodType.
 If you create a CPPMethodType, what does this mean (if anything)
for CPPPointerToMemberType?

Subject	[cdt-dev] CPPFunctionType - method or function?

Andrew, or somebody else,
Could you please help me understand design of CPPFunctionType class. The
class seems to be used for both, class methods and standalone functions,
but it doesn't make a distinction between the two. I would expect CPPFunctionType
to know the type of its

implicit (this) parameter. This would also make it easy to tell apart method
and standalone function types, since the latter don't have implicit parameters.

Without making such changes, is there another way to determine if CPPFunctionType
describes a method or a function? I need this information to generate either
CPPPointerType or CPPPointerToMemberType for the type of _expression_ with
unary & operator. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=201204.
