formula_name_t

Defined in header: <ixion/formula_name_resolver.hpp>

struct formula_name_t

Structure that represents the type of a ‘name’ in a formula expression.

A name can be either one of:

• cell reference

• range reference

• table reference

• named expression

• function

Public Types

enum name_type

Kind of name.

Values:

enumerator invalid

The string is not a valid name of any kind.

enumerator cell_reference

Reference to a single cell.

enumerator range_reference

Reference to a range of cells.

enumerator table_reference

Reference to a table or a part of one.

enumerator named_expression

Named expression.

enumerator function

Built-in function.

using value_type = std::variant<address_t, range_t, table_type, formula_function_t>

Type of the resolved value: an address for a cell reference, a range for a range reference, a table_type for a table reference, or a function opcode for a function. A named expression has no value.

Public Functions

formula_name_t()

std::string to_string() const

Return a string that represents the data stored internally. Useful for debugging.

Public Members

name_type type

Kind of name.

value_type value

Resolved value, whose alternative depends on the kind of name.

struct table_type

Table information for a table reference name. Unlike the ixion::table_ref_t counterpart, we store strings as string views as the resolver doesn’t have access to the string pool.

Public Members

std::string_view name

Name of the table, or empty when the reference does not name it.

std::string_view column_first

Name of the first column, or empty for an area-only reference.

std::string_view column_last

Name of the last column, or empty for a single-column reference.

table_areas_t areas

Areas covered, as a combination of table_area_t flags.
