This method iterates over the nodes within the translation unit array that are referenced from the class definition node via the 'fncs' attribute in the node. It creates a basic description of the method, capturing the node identifiers for the parameters, return type, etc. To make use of these, they must be resolved at a later point. (See resolveType.)

1 2	getClassMethods(def, accessMode = c("public", "protected"), existingClasses = list(), dropArtificial = TRUE, dropOperators = TRUE, ...)

`def`	the node in the translation unit that gives the definition for the class of interest.
`accessMode`	a vector identifying whether public, protected and/or private methods should be processed. If this is non-empty, the `access` attribute of a method node is compared to the elements in this list and if it matches it is included in the return. If this is empty, all method nodes are processed.
`existingClasses`	currently ignored. This is intended to be a repository or catalog of resolved type definitions to avoid them being re-processed.
`dropArtificial`	a logical value indicating whether to discard methods that are identified as "artificial", i.e. generated by the compiler rather than explicitly defined in the code.
`dropOperators`	(logical) include or omit any C++ operator methods such as `operator() +`.
`...`	additional arguments passed to `nodeIterator` and hence possibly onto the function that processes each visited node.

A list with an element for each method declared within the class. The names of the methods are used as names for the list elements.

Each element describes the corresponding method and is of class NativeClassMethod, a simple S3-style class. Each such element has the following fields:

`returnType`	the index of the node in the translation unit the defines the type of the return value from the method.
`parameters`	a list of parameters (which may have names for the elements), each giving the index of the nodes defining the parameter.
`index`	the index of the node defining this method
`name`	a character vector giving the name of the method.
