Interface IMetaTagsNode

All Superinterfaces:

IASNode, ISourceLocation

public interface IMetaTagsNode
extends IASNode

An AST node representing the collection of metadata annotations on a declaration.

The general shape of this node is:

 IMetaTagsNode
   IMetaTagNode <-- getChild(0)
   IMetaTagNode <-- getChild(1)
   ...
 
 For example,
 
 [Foo]
 [Bar]
 public var i:int;
 
 is represented as
 
 IVariableNode
   IMetaTagsNode
     IMetaTagNode "Foo"
     IMetaTagNode "Bar"
   INamespaceDecorationNode "public"
   IKeywordNode "var"
   IIdentifierNode "i"
   IIdentifierNode "int"
