Instance Method Detail

def global : BoolLiteral #

Returnstrue if this is a global path (starts with::)

DEPRECATED Use#global? instead


def global? : BoolLiteral #

Returnstrue if this is a global path (starts with::)


def names : ArrayLiteral(MacroId) #

Returns an array with each separate part of this path.


def resolve : ASTNode #

Resolves this path to aTypeNode if it denotes a type, to the value of a constant if it denotes a constant, or otherwise gives a compile-time error.


def resolve? : ASTNode | NilLiteral #

Resolves this path to aTypeNode if it denotes a type, to the value of a constant if it denotes a constant, or otherwise returns aNilLiteral.


def types : ArrayLiteral(ASTNode) #

Returns this path inside an array literal. This method exists so you can call#types on the type of a type declaration and get all types, whether it's a Generic, Path or Union.
