Initializer inferType(Initializer init, Scope* sc);
Translate init to an Expression in order to infer the type.
Parameters:
Initializer init Initializer AST node
Scope* sc context
Returns:
an equivalent ExpInitializer if successful, or ErrorInitializer if it cannot be translated
Expression initializerToExpression(Initializer init, Type t = null);
Translate init to an Expression.
Parameters:
Initializer init Initializer AST node
Type t if not null, type to coerce expression to
Returns:
Expression created, null if cannot, ErrorExp for other errors
Initializer initializerSemantic(Initializer init, Scope* sc, Type t, NeedInterpret needInterpret);
Perform semantic analysis on init.
Parameters:
Initializer init Initializer AST node
Scope* sc context
Type t type that the initializer needs to become
NeedInterpret needInterpret if CTFE needs to be run on this, such as if it is the initializer for a const declaration
Returns:
Initializer with completed semantic analysis, ErrorInitializer if errors were encountered
