IncompleteType (cpg 3.4.0 API)

- de.fraunhofer.aisec.cpg.graph.Node
- - de.fraunhofer.aisec.cpg.graph.types.Type
  - - de.fraunhofer.aisec.cpg.graph.types.IncompleteType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Persistable, IVisitable<Node>
```
public class IncompleteType
extends Type
```
IncompleteTypes are defined as object with unknown size. For instance: void, arrays of unknown length, forward declarated classes in C++
Right now we are only dealing with void for objects with unknown size, therefore the name is fixed to void. However, this can be changed in future, in order to support other objects with unknown size apart from void. Therefore this Type is not called VoidType

  - reference
```
public Type reference(PointerType.PointerOrigin pointerOrigin)
```
    Specified by:
    
    reference in class Type
    
    Parameters:
    
    pointerOrigin - Reason for the reference (array of pointer)
    
    Returns:
    
    PointerType to a IncompleteType, e.g. void*
  - dereference
```
public Type dereference()
```
    Specified by:
    
    dereference in class Type
    
    Returns:
    
    dereferencing void results in void therefore the same type is returned
  - duplicate
```
public Type duplicate()
```
    Specified by:
    
    duplicate in class Type
    
    Returns:
    
    Creates an exact copy of the current type (chain)
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)
```
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Type
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Type
  - toString
```
public java.lang.String toString()
```
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Type
