<p>The table below begins with constants, moves on to unary expressions,

then proceeds to binary expressions, and concludes with various other

kinds of expressions:

<dl compact="compact">
|

<dt><code>INTEGER_CST</code></dt>
|

|
|
<dd><p>These nodes represent integer constants. Note that the type of these
|
||
|
|
constants is obtained with <code>TREE_TYPE</code>; they are not always of type
|
||
|
|
<code>int</code>. In particular, <code>char</code> constants are represented with
|
||
|
|
<code>INTEGER_CST</code> nodes. The value of the integer constant <code>e</code> is
|
||
|
|
represented in an array of HOST_WIDE_INT. There are enough elements
|
||
|
|
in the array to represent the value without taking extra elements for
|
||
|
|
redundant 0s or -1. The number of elements used to represent <code>e</code>
|
||
|
|
is available via <code>TREE_INT_CST_NUNITS</code>. Element <code>i</code> can be
|
||
|
|
extracted by using <code>TREE_INT_CST_ELT (e, i)</code>.
|
||
|
|
<code>TREE_INT_CST_LOW</code> is a shorthand for <code>TREE_INT_CST_ELT (e, 0)</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The functions <code>tree_fits_shwi_p</code> and <code>tree_fits_uhwi_p</code>
|
||
|
|
can be used to tell if the value is small enough to fit in a
|
||
|
|
signed HOST_WIDE_INT or an unsigned HOST_WIDE_INT respectively.
|
||
|
|
The value can then be extracted using <code>tree_to_shwi</code> and
|
||
|
|
<code>tree_to_uhwi</code>.

<dt><code>REAL_CST</code></dt>
|

<p>FIXME: Talk about how to obtain representations of this constant, do
|

comparisons, and so forth.

<dd>
|

<p>These nodes represent fixed-point constants. The type of these constants
|
||
|
|
is obtained with <code>TREE_TYPE</code>. <code>TREE_FIXED_CST_PTR</code> points to
|
||
|
|
a <code>struct fixed_value</code>; <code>TREE_FIXED_CST</code> returns the structure
|
||
|
|
itself. <code>struct fixed_value</code> contains <code>data</code> with the size of two
|
||
|
|
<code>HOST_BITS_PER_WIDE_INT</code> and <code>mode</code> as the associated fixed-point
|
||
|
|
machine mode for <code>data</code>.

</p>
|

|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>COMPLEX_CST</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>These nodes are used to represent complex number constants, that is a
|
||
|
|
<code>__complex__</code> whose parts are constant nodes. The
|
||
|
|
<code>TREE_REALPART</code> and <code>TREE_IMAGPART</code> return the real and the
|
||
|
|
imaginary parts respectively.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>VECTOR_CST</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>These nodes are used to represent vector constants, whose parts are
|
||
|
|
constant nodes. Each individual constant node is either an integer or a
|
||
|
|
double constant node. The first operand is a <code>TREE_LIST</code> of the
|
||
|
|
constant nodes and is accessed through <code>TREE_VECTOR_CST_ELTS</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>STRING_CST</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>These nodes represent string-constants. The <code>TREE_STRING_LENGTH</code>
|
||
|
|
returns the length of the string, as an <code>int</code>. The
|
||
|
|
<code>TREE_STRING_POINTER</code> is a <code>char*</code> containing the string
|
||
|
|
itself. The string may not be <code>NUL</code>-terminated, and it may contain
|
||
|
|
embedded <code>NUL</code> characters. Therefore, the
|
||
|
|
<code>TREE_STRING_LENGTH</code> includes the trailing <code>NUL</code> if it is
|
||
|
|
present.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For wide string constants, the <code>TREE_STRING_LENGTH</code> is the number
|
||
|
|
of bytes in the string, and the <code>TREE_STRING_POINTER</code>
|
||
|
|
points to an array of the bytes of the string, as represented on the
|
||
|
|
target system (that is, as integers in the target endianness). Wide and
|
||
|
|
non-wide string constants are distinguished only by the <code>TREE_TYPE</code>
|
||
|
|
of the <code>STRING_CST</code>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>FIXME: The formats of string constants are not well-defined when the
|
||
|
|
target system bytes are not the same width as host system bytes.
