It is the number of elements that have been matched. You can use it in python code (as a string, I think), in ocaml code (as an integer), or inherit it into another list-typed metavariable. > But I would like to try more analysis with the data that is passed by the > metavariable type "parameter list".

If you write an ocaml script, you can have access to the comple abstract syntax trees. Python code only receives a string representation. julia _______________________________________________ Cocci mailing list [email protected] https://systeme.lip6.fr/mailman/listinfo/cocci
