[pygccxml-development] Comments on code in FT package

[Roman Y. <rom...@gm...>]

Hi. I started to work on FT package, please don't work on it.
I just want to comment some code I saw, I fill this is important.

reftype = arg.type

if not (isinstance(reftype, declarations.reference_t) or
            isinstance(reftype, declarations.pointer_t) ):
    ...

This is  the wrong way to test for type  being pointer or reference(
hint typedef ).
The right way is to use type traits functionality  from declarations package:

reftype = arg.type
if not( declarations.is_reference( reftype ) \

           or declarations.is_pointer( reftype ) ):
    ...
