you can retrieve the full qualified name using the method ClassModel::scope() 
and the ::name() of of your CodeModelitem.. 

of if you're using Catalog you have to call Tag::path().. all these 
informations are already used in CppSupport part.

I don't think it is a good idea to use compression.. it is too slow.. the best 
way to solve the problem is to use a Storage Pool, and not a call to the 
memory management(i.e new/delete) for each new AST node.
