Issues with declaration (statements)

[oxisto]

There are two issues with declaration statements or declaration sequences. The first one is, that it seems that all declarations in a sequence are assigned the same type. However, this is not entirely correct, if you look at:

int *a, b;

This actually should declare two variables, one with type int* and one with type int. In our CPG, both variables have type int*, which is incorrect.

Second issue is regarding class types that are declared within a simple declaration, i.e.

class A {

} myA;

While the CPG correctly parses the type of the variable myA as A, the declaration statement (if used in a function) only contains a variable declaration for myA, but it should also contain a record declaration for A.

Haha what, you can declare classes in this way? 😅

Yeah... to be honest, I also did not know that before looking at the C++ reference. Weird language.

Ok it looks like my original test was wrong and the first issue is already solved, the second one is still there though.
