522910 - Change .isFcall property to a string describing the type of call

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Developer Infrastructure :: Source Code Analysis, defect)

Description

[Diego Novillo]

Attachment: Make .isFcall a string property with 5 possible values.

When analyzing a function call, we need to distinguish whether the call is a virtual call or not.  This patch changes .isFcall to return one of five possible values:

       'direct'        for regular function calls.
       'indirect'      for function calls via function pointers.
       'virtual'       for calls to class methods via the vtable.
       'constructor'   for constructor calls (e.g. copy constructors).
       'initializer'   for calls that initialize an aggregate but are not
                       class constructors.

Is this OK?
