.SH NAME
ExtUtils::ParseXS::Node \- Classes for nodes of an ExtUtils::ParseXS AST
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
XXX TBC
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
XXX Sept 2024: this is Work In Progress. This API is currently private and
subject to change. Most of ParseXS doesn\*(Aqt use an AST, and instead
maintains just enough state to emit code as it parses. This module
represents the start of an effort to make it use an AST instead.
.PP
An \f(CW\*(C`ExtUtils::ParseXS::Node\*(C'\fR class, and its various subclasses, hold the
state for the nodes of an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST), which represents the
parsed state of an XS file.
.PP
Each node is basically a hash of fields. Which field names are legal
varies by the node type. The hash keys and values can be accessed
directly: there are no getter/setter methods.
