I’m having a difficult time with what, in my mind, should be a fairly simple task: Using the python bindings to libclang I want to get the dimensions for a multi-dimensional array field of a POD C++ structure. When I traverse the AST, I can drill down the cursor containing the array field declaration, and I can even see that it has two child nodes containing, what I assume, are the sizes of each of its dimensions… but I’ve had no luck accessing the size as a value. Below is a minimal example of my attempt at accessing the size:

test.hpp

#pragma once

struct my_struct {
    int mdarr[10][20];
};

test.py

import clang.cindex as cl

def process(c):
    if c.kind in [cl.CursorKind.STRUCT_DECL, cl.CursorKind.CLASS_DECL]:
        print("Found struct: ", c.spelling)
        for field in c.type.get_fields():
           print("Found field: ", field.spelling) 
           # Returns size of first dimension but not the second dimension
           print("Array size: ", field.type.get_array_size())
           for child in field.get_children():
                # Prints an empty string
                print("Found child: ", child.spelling)
                # How do I extract the value from the `INTEGER_LITERAL`?
                print("Child cursor kind: ", child.kind)

        return

    for child in c.get_children():
        process(child)

idx = cl.Index.create()
tu = idx.parse("test.hpp")
process(tu.cursor)

Output

Found struct:  my_struct
Found field:  mdarr
Array size:  10
Found child:
Child cursor kind:  CursorKind.INTEGER_LITERAL
Found child:
Child cursor kind:  CursorKind.INTEGER_LITERAL

Is there an easy way to extract each dimension’s size using libclang?
