Review request for KDevelop.


Repository: kdev-qmljs


Description
-------

This patch adds support for field member expressions ("base.identifier") to ExpressionVisitor and UseBuilder. When ExpressionVisitor encounters such an expression, it finds the type of the base (that can be anything) and then looks in its internal context for the declaration of the identifier. UseBuilder has also been modified to take advantage of this: when a field member expression is encountered, ExpressionVisitor is used to get its corresponding declaration.

This patch makes something like this possible:

Item {
    id: test
    prop: "value"

    onSomething: { console.log(test.prop); }
}

"prop" in "test.prop" is registered as being an use of the "prop" property of test.

Currently, only QML components are handled. Snippets like "var a = {foo: "bar"}; a.bar = "bar";" are currently not supported because a is not declared in such a way that ExpressionVisitor can find a declaration having an inner context. I have ideas allowing this to work, though.

Testing
-------

The testsuite passes, and a new test ensures that "prop" has two uses (its declaration and "test.prop") in the snippet I give in the description.


Thanks,
