[cdt-dev] Retrieve file location of new nodes in AST

[Kos <kosashi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have noticed that I cannot retrieve the file location of an AST node which had been just created.
Let me illustrate:

ASTRewrite r = ASTRewrite.create(ast);

/* ... */
                
r.insertBefore(nearStatement.getParent(), nearStatement, newStatement, null);


Change c = r.rewriteAST();
c.perform(new NullProgressMonitor());


                
IASTFileLocation location = newStatement.getFileLocation();


// location is null

The file location needed to create a LinkedPosition on the newly created node.

Any solution for that issue? Should I trigger the recalculation of node positions manually somehow after perform()?

Best regards,
