2022 :: how to examine template result?

• cy (orginal) [2016-02-07T08:44:18+01:00] view original

  How do I get the tree representation of what a template application produces? Like if I have

  template foo(bar: expr): stmt =
    echo(bar)
  Run

  How would I tell that "foo(42)" is going to expand to "echo(42)"? Or the equivalent that treeRepr(parseStmt("echo(42)")) would produce.

  Pass it to a macro that dumps the AST.
