Functions

func IsObjectGlobalRef

func IsObjectGlobalRef(obj std_types.Object) bool

IsObjectGlobalRef returns true if the object refers to a name in the global scope.

For example, a file may declare a global constant "X" and inside a function the constant is assigned to a new local variable. In that assignment, globalRef would be true because when "X" is used inside the function, it refers to the global. However if a local constant "X" had been declared above the assignment, globalRef would be false because it refers to a local-scope name.

We compute this by checking if the object's scope is the same as the package's.

func ParseTypeObject

func ParseTypeObject(t std_types.Object) (pkgPath, typeName string)

ParseTypeObject parses a go/types.Type node for its package/type details.

func ParseTypeString

func ParseTypeString(s string) (typePkgPath, typeName string)

ParseTypeString parses "simple," single-type go/types.Type.String() values in the form "<import path>.<type name>".
