|
<p>An <code>IDENTIFIER_NODE</code> represents a slightly more general concept
|
||
|
|
than the standard C or C++ concept of identifier. In particular, an
|
||
|
|
<code>IDENTIFIER_NODE</code> may contain a ‘<samp>$</samp>’, or other extraordinary
|
||
|
|
characters.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>There are never two distinct <code>IDENTIFIER_NODE</code>s representing the
|
||
|
|
same identifier. Therefore, you may use pointer equality to compare
|
||
|
|
<code>IDENTIFIER_NODE</code>s, rather than using a routine like
|
||
|
|
<code>strcmp</code>. Use <code>get_identifier</code> to obtain the unique
|
||
|
|
<code>IDENTIFIER_NODE</code> for a supplied string.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can use the following macros to access identifiers:
|
||
|
|
</p><dl compact="compact">
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>IDENTIFIER_POINTER</code>
|
||
|
|
<a name="index-IDENTIFIER_005fPOINTER"></a>
|
||
|
|
</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>The string represented by the identifier, represented as a
|
||
|
|
<code>char*</code>. This string is always <code>NUL</code>-terminated, and contains
|
||
|
|
no embedded <code>NUL</code> characters.
|
||
|

</p>
|
||
|

</dd>
|

|
<a name="index-IDENTIFIER_005fLENGTH"></a>
|
||
|
|
</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>The length of the string returned by <code>IDENTIFIER_POINTER</code>, not
|
||
|
|
including the trailing <code>NUL</code>. This value of
|
||
|
|
<code>IDENTIFIER_LENGTH (x)</code> is always the same as <code>strlen
|
||
|
|
(IDENTIFIER_POINTER (x))</code>.

overloaded operator. In this case, you should not depend on the

contents of either the <code>IDENTIFIER_POINTER</code> or the
|

<code>IDENTIFIER_LENGTH</code>.

operator converts.
