Properties

This field holds the code snippet that the node represents.

This optional fields provides the column number of the program construct represented by the node.

The path of the source file this node was generated from, relative to the root path in the meta data node. This field must be set but may be set to the value <unknown> to indicate that no source file can be associated with the node, e.g., because the node represents an entity known to exist because it is referenced, but for which the file that is is declared in is unknown.

This is the fully-qualified name of an entity, e.g., the fully-qualified name of a method or type. The details of what constitutes a fully-qualified name are language specific. This field SHOULD be human readable.

This optional field provides the line number of the program construct represented by the node.

Name of represented object, e.g., method name (e.g. "run")

Start offset into the CONTENT property of the corresponding FILE node. The offset is such that parts of the content can easily be accessed via content.substring(offset, offsetEnd). This means that the offset must be measured in utf16 encoding (i.e. neither in characters/codeunits nor in byte-offsets into a utf8 encoding). E.g. for METHOD nodes this start offset points to the start of the methods source code in the string holding the source code of the entire file.

End offset (exclusive) into the CONTENT property of the corresponding FILE node. See OFFSET documentation for finer details. E.g. for METHOD nodes this end offset points to the first code position which is not part of the method.

This integer indicates the position of the node among its siblings in the AST. The left-most child has an order of 0.
