Thanks for the reply. So when you say "names outside (the present
IASTTranslationUnit on which the get...() query is invoked)" isn't there an
IASTName in some other IASTTranslationUnit corresponding to every IIndexName
that is returned by the get...() methods ? If so, how does one get access to
that IASTName from the IIndexName ? This is what I tried to mean in my
original question. But I did not explain it correctly. Please clarify.
The only way to get those IASTNames would be to open the corresponding files and parse them to get ASTs. This is pretty expensive and in most cases unnecessary.
