Sure, Not a problem.
What's the way to get the declarations such as *ptr and &bar as it is
inside the *DeclRefExpr *block*. *
*Example: *
void foo(){
int bar=1;
int **ptr;
**ptr = &bar;* // this line
}
*If I query like this way:*
if (const ValueDecl *VD = dyn_cast<ValueDecl>(DRE->getDecl())){
OS << VD->getType() //returns the original type of that declaration,
not the one that was used.
}
Thanks and Regards.
