Getting typedef name of a return value of a typedef function

[xlab]

Hey, I'm struggling with this case and CC, there seems to be no way to distinguish the typedef name of a return value type and the function typedef name.

typedef int hb_bool_t;

typedef hb_bool_t (*hb_font_get_font_extents_func_t) (hb_font_t *font, void *font_data,
                               hb_font_extents_t *metrics,
                               void *user_data);

typedef hb_font_get_font_extents_func_t hb_font_get_font_h_extents_func_t;
typedef hb_font_get_font_extents_func_t hb_font_get_font_v_extents_func_t;

I can get either

hb_bool_t
hb_font_get_font_extents_func_t
hb_font_get_font_extents_func_t

trying to resolve the returning values of these three functions or

int
int
int

whereas the real situation is

hb_bool_t
hb_bool_t
hb_bool_t

See https://github.com/xlab/cgogen/blob/ce6cef3a5c56da7c4d87379c35594a413418b024/translator/ast_walker.go#L348-L351 how this should be actually handled? Accessing the typ.Result() doesn't provide the typedef name of its type (I get int), trying to get it via typ.Result().Declarator().RawSpecifier() would yield specifier of a function typedef, not the resulting type. I'm not sure if the CC API is incomplete or it's a bug or I don't know something.

@xlab Max please take a look at the test I've just pushed. It passes, so I probably did not understood the problem. Please clarify or adjust the test to fail, thank you.

@cznic
Alright this is a good idea! I've adjusted the test so it fails, also I hope it's clear now what is the problem I'm experiencing there. Check my commit pls.

typedef int bool_t;

typedef bool_t (*bool_func) (void);
typedef bool_func func1;

@xlab PTAL, thanks.

 +  // RawDefDeclarator returns the typedef declarator associated with a
 +  RawDeclarator() 

This needs a typo fix, otherwise works fine! Brilliant!
