fixes #13828, refs #23101
Postfix nodes in
var
/let
/const
/routine nodes are now retained in typed AST, previously they would just become either annkSym
node or annkPragmaExpr
node containing thenkSym
node. This was done for type sections in #23101 which also handled doc generation of postfix nodes. The newly generated postfix nodes get transformed back into just the symbol nodes intransf
.On top of this, object fields now store their symbol node in the AST. The old output of:
was:
Now the
Ident "a"
becomesSym "a"
, storing the symbol of the field.
