getDataStructures: Find the nodes in a translation unit corresponding to data...
In omegahat/RGCCTranslationUnit: R interface to GCC source code information

Description Usage Arguments Author(s)

This function searches the nodes in a parsed translation unit object in R and finds the nodes that define data types in C/C++. These nodes include struct and union types, typedef declarations. They do not (currently) include enumerations or C++ classes (?). One can change the type of nodes considered via the types parameter.

One can fetch all the declarations or restrict to one or more source files by specifying their (partial) name.

`p`	the translation object returned by `parseTU`.
`files`	a character vector giving the names (or partial names) of files of interest. This is used as part of a filter that compares the source attribute of a matching node to elements of this vector. If they "match", the node is included in the return. The concept of match uses `pmatch` by default
`types`	a character vector specifying the
`includeMissingSource`	a logical value that controls whether nodes which have no source attribute are included or excluded in the resulting list of nodes
