Conditional declarations don't seem to be parsed properly if a colon is used, ie version: about libdparse HOT 6 CLOSED

The parser doesn't make bar a child of a conditional declaration. It parses "version(Windows):" as a sibling node to bar.

from libdparse.

Are you saying this is expected? If I simply take out the nested version(X86_64) block in the second file, Dscanner can't find bar, ie it is a child again.

from libdparse.

Like this?

version(Windows):
long bar = 3;

from libdparse.

Yes, or this:

version(Windows):
char noo = 'd';
long bar = 3;

Note that is with the one modification to Dscannner specified above, to omit visiting conditional declarations. Try it for yourself, add that line and recompile Dscanner, then try searching each of the above sample files. It's not clear why bar is a child declaration within a colon-terminated conditional declaration in some cases but not in others, ie when there's a nested conditional declaration in between.

Have you tried the --ast option? It should show you what AST the parser is creating.

from libdparse.

No, I had not tried it. It shows that noo and bar are listed in the trueDeclarations for the first Windows conditional declaration if there's no nested conditional declaration, but not if the X86_64 conditional declaration is in between. They are then listed outside the Windows conditional declaration, which appears to be a clear bug to me, as a colon-terminated version declaration should apply to the entire file.
