Note that when multiple matches are involved via forEach* matchers,
equalsBoundNodes acts as a filter.
For example:
compoundStmt(
    forEachDescendant(varDecl().bind("d")),
    forEachDescendant(declRefExpr(to(decl(equalsBoundNode("d"))))))
will trigger a match for each combination of variable declaration

recordDecl(
    has(fieldDecl(hasName("a"), hasType(type().bind("t")))),
    has(fieldDecl(hasName("b"), hasType(type(equalsBoundNode("t"))))))
  matches the class X, as a and b have the same type.

Note that when multiple matches are involved via forEach* matchers,
equalsBoundNodes acts as a filter.
For example:
compoundStmt(
    forEachDescendant(varDecl().bind("d")),
    forEachDescendant(declRefExpr(to(decl(equalsBoundNode("d"))))))
will trigger a match for each combination of variable declaration

  matches the class X, as a and b have the same type.

Note that when multiple matches are involved via forEach* matchers,
equalsBoundNodes acts as a filter.
For example:
compoundStmt(
    forEachDescendant(varDecl().bind("d")),
    forEachDescendant(declRefExpr(to(decl(equalsBoundNode("d"))))))
will trigger a match for each combination of variable declaration
and reference to that variable declaration within a compound statement.

template instantiations.

Given
  template<typename T> void A(T t) { T i; }

  template<typename T> void A(T t) { T i; j += 42;}
  A(0);
  A(0U);

  matches 'int i;' and 'unsigned i'.
unless(stmt(isInTemplateInstantiation()))
  will NOT match j += 42; as it's shared between the template definition and
  instantiation.

Matches if any of the given matchers matches.

Unlike anyOf, eachOf will generate a match result for each
matching submatcher.

For example, in:
  class A { int a; int b; };
The matcher:
  recordDecl(eachOf(has(fieldDecl(hasName("a")).bind("v")),
                    has(fieldDecl(hasName("b")).bind("v"))))

  class X {};  Matches X, because X::X is a class of name X inside X.
  class A { class X {}; };
  class B { class C { class X {}; }; };

DescendantT must be an AST base type.

As opposed to 'hasDescendant', 'forEachDescendant' will cause a match for
each result that matches instead of only on the first one.

Note: Recursively combined ForEachDescendant can cause many matches:
  recordDecl(forEachDescendant(recordDecl(forEachDescendant(recordDecl()))))
will match 10 times (plus injected class name matches) on:
  class A { class B { class C { class D { class E {}; }; }; }; };

with callee(...)
  matching this->x, x, y.x, f respectively

Note: Callee cannot take the more general internal::Matcher<Expr>

internal::Matcher<Decl>, as the matcher hierarchy is purely
implemented in terms of implicit casts.

breaks up multiple-declaration DeclStmt's into multiple single-declaration
DeclStmt's.
Example: Given non-global declarations
  int a, b = 0;
  int c;
  int d = 2, e;
declStmt(containsDeclaration(
      0, varDecl(hasInitializer(anything()))))
  matches only 'int d = 2, e;', and
declStmt(containsDeclaration(1, varDecl()))

  Matcher<TemplateSpecializationType>, Matcher<TemplateTypeParmType>,
  Matcher<TypedefType>, Matcher<UnresolvedUsingType>

Matches casts whose destination type matches a given matcher.

(Note: Clang's AST refers to other conversions as "casts" too, and calls
actual casts "explicit" casts.)

Overloaded to match the declaration of the expression's or value
declaration's type.

In case of a value declaration (for example a variable declaration),
this resolves one layer of indirection. For example, in the value
declaration "X x;", recordDecl(hasName("X")) matches the declaration of X,
while varDecl(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))) matches the declaration
of x."

Example matches x (matcher = expr(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))))
            and z (matcher = varDecl(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))))
 class X {};
 void y(X &x) { x; X z; }

Usable as: Matcher<Expr>, Matcher<ValueDecl>

Matches if the expression's or declaration's type matches a type
matcher.

 class X {};
 void y(X &x) { x; X z; }

- for type nodes, the declaration of the underlying type
- for CallExpr, the declaration of the callee
- for MemberExpr, the declaration of the referenced member
- for CXXConstructExpr, the declaration of the constructor

Also usable as Matcher<T> for any T supporting the getDecl() member
function. e.g. various subtypes of clang::Type and various expressions.

Usable as: Matcher<CallExpr>, Matcher<CXXConstructExpr>,
  Matcher<DeclRefExpr>, Matcher<EnumType>, Matcher<InjectedClassNameType>,
  Matcher<LabelStmt>, Matcher<MemberExpr>, Matcher<QualType>,
  Matcher<RecordType>, Matcher<TagType>,
  Matcher<TemplateSpecializationType>, Matcher<TemplateTypeParmType>,
  Matcher<TypedefType>, Matcher<UnresolvedUsingType>

Matches any using shadow declaration.

Given
  namespace X { void b(); }
  using X::b;
usingDecl(hasAnyUsingShadowDecl(hasName("b"))))
  matches using X::b 

Matches a using shadow declaration where the target declaration is
matched by the given matcher.

Given
  namespace X { int a; void b(); }
  using X::a;
  using X::b;
usingDecl(hasAnyUsingShadowDecl(hasTargetDecl(functionDecl())))
  matches using X::b but not using X::a 

Overloaded to match the declaration of the expression's or value
declaration's type.

In case of a value declaration (for example a variable declaration),
this resolves one layer of indirection. For example, in the value
declaration "X x;", recordDecl(hasName("X")) matches the declaration of X,
while varDecl(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))) matches the declaration
of x."

Example matches x (matcher = expr(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))))
            and z (matcher = varDecl(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))))
 class X {};
 void y(X &x) { x; X z; }

Usable as: Matcher<Expr>, Matcher<ValueDecl>

Matches if the expression's or declaration's type matches a type
matcher.

Example matches x (matcher = expr(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))))
            and z (matcher = varDecl(hasType(recordDecl(hasName("X")))))
 class X {};
 void y(X &x) { x; X z; }

Matches a variable declaration that has an initializer expression
that matches the given matcher.

Example matches x (matcher = varDecl(hasInitializer(callExpr())))
  bool y() { return true; }
  bool x = y();

Matches VariableArrayType nodes that have a specific size
expression.

Given
  void f(int b) {
    int a[b];
  }
variableArrayType(hasSizeExpr(ignoringImpCasts(declRefExpr(to(
  varDecl(hasName("b")))))))
  matches "int a[b]"

Matches a 'for', 'while', or 'do while' statement that has
a given body.

Given
  for (;;) {}
hasBody(compoundStmt())
  matches 'for (;;) {}'
with compoundStmt()
  matching '{}'

Matches the condition expression of an if statement, for loop,
or conditional operator.

Example matches true (matcher = hasCondition(boolLiteral(equals(true))))
  if (true) {}

Matches NestedNameSpecifierLocs for which the given inner
NestedNameSpecifier-matcher matches.

Matches TypeLocs for which the given inner
QualType-matcher matches.
