Using Inspect With C++

Examples

Specifying code locations by label
You can use a C++ label as the code reference in a code location. However,
because Inspect also accepts scope units as code references, a conflict arises if a
label’s identifier is the same as the identifier for its containing function. Inspect
interprets the identifier as a reference to the function, not to the label.
Consequently, you must specify the code location of the label by its statement
number, its line number, or its instruction offset.

Specifying code locations by line number
If no statement begins at the line number you specify, Inspect issues this warning:
Inspect then uses the statement starting at the given line number. If more than one
statement begins on the line you specify, Inspect uses the start of the first
statement.

The STATEMENT code unit and C++ statements
Inspect recognizes these as statements:

Simple C++ statements that are not part of a compound or composite
statement

C++ statements in a compound statement, delimited by braces

The parts of a composite C++ statement (if, for, and so on)

Using the FROM Clause in a Command List
You can use the FROM clause only once in a command list.
Examples
Given a function named class::funct that contains a labeled statement named
error_fix, you can specify these code locations:
These example code locations assume the current scope path #class::funct:
** Inspect warning 117 ** A subsequent line number is assumed: line-number
Code Location Specifies
#class::funct The primary entry point of the function class::funct.
#class::funct.error_fix The code immediately following the label error_fix.
Code Location Specifies
class::funct The primary entry point of the function class::funct.
error_fix + 3S Three statements past the label error_fix.
