Java: More details about nested arrays #6552
Description
Given a multi-dimensional array, the extractor doesn't seem to provide enough information about nested sub-arrays.
For example:
public class Test {
void test() {
byte[][] array = new byte[][] {
new byte[] { 1, 2 },
new byte[] { 3, 4 ,5 }
};
}
}The following query shows only IntegerLiteral and TypeAccess for the nested arrays:
import java
from ArrayCreationExpr array
select array.getInit().getAnInit().getAChildExpr().getAPrimaryQlClass()Instead, ArrayCreationExpr should be used to represent the nested arrays, shouldn't it?

Thank you for reporting this! I will forward it to the Java team.

Fixed in the next release: for the best backward compatibility, the representation will be somewhat irregular:
{ { 1, 2 } })byte[] bs = new byte[10])new byte[10]ArrayCreationExprArrayCreationExprnew byte[] { 1 }ArrayInitArrayCreationExpr(with agetInit){ 1, 2, 3 }ArrayInitArrayCreationExpr(with agetInit)
