I want to get the arguments passed to a function. for example, if I have the call
printf("%d%d", i, j);
the output should be
%d%d
i
j
I am able to get to function calls using VisitCallExpr() in RecursiveASTVisitor. Also able to get the number of arguments and the argument types. But I don't know how to get the arguments.
bool MyRecursiveASTVisitor::VisitCallExpr (clang::CallExpr *E)
{
for(int i=0, j=E->getNumArgs(); i<j; i++)
{
llvm::errs() << "argType: " << E->getArg(i)->getType().getAsString() << "\n";
}
return true;
}
Output:
argType: char *
argType: int
argType: int
Please help me getting the arguments.
You are calling E->getArg(i)->getType() - but that is type of argument. Use E->getArg(i) to get Expr* representing value of argument. Then use printPretty(...) method to pretty-print it to string, if you need string value.
your answer was very helpful martins. I didn't know about printPretty(...) function. Now, I am able to print the arguments. below is my code to print the arguments.
bool MyRecursiveASTVisitor::VisitCallExpr (clang::CallExpr *E)
{
clang::LangOptions LangOpts;
LangOpts.CPlusPlus = true;
clang::PrintingPolicy Policy(LangOpts);
for(int i=0, j=E->getNumArgs(); i<j; i++)
{
std::string TypeS;
llvm::raw_string_ostream s(TypeS);
E->getArg(i)->printPretty(s, 0, Policy);
llvm::errs() << "arg: " << s.str() << "\n";
}
return true;
}
and the output looks like this:
"%d%d"
i
j
