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 ElseClause &elseClause)	Finds syntax nodes of the type ElseClause in your C/C++ code and returns them as elseClause. For example, in if (x) foo(); else bar();, this predicate matches the else clause node for else bar();.
isa(Cpp.Node.Node node)	Checks if node is an ElseClause. Use this relation if you want to negate the condition (for example: not Cpp.ElseClause.isa(n)).
cast(Cpp.Node.Node node, required ElseClause &cast)	Finds syntax nodes of the type ElseClause from the nodes in node. Retrieval occurs if node is compatible with the ElseClause type. Use this relation if you need further ElseClause properties.
statement(ElseClause self, Cpp.Node.Node &child)	Matches the statement inside the else clause. For example, in else bar();, this predicate matches the statement bar();.
isEnclosedInElseClause(Cpp.Node.Node child)	Checks if child appears inside an ElseClause.
getEnclosingElseClause(Cpp.Node.Node child, required ElseClause &parent)	Finds the nearest enclosing ElseClause ancestor of child and returns it as parent.
