    • evaluateOn

      <T extends CtElement> List<T> evaluateOn​(CtElement... startNode)
      Search for elements matching this CtPatch from start nodes given as parameters.

    • relativePath

      CtPath relativePath​(CtElement parent)
      Returns the path that is relative to the given element (subpath from it to the end of the path). This is used to have relative paths, instead of absolute path from the root package. For example, "#typeMember[index=2]#body#statement[index=2]#else" is a relative path to the class of absolute path "#subPackage[name=spoon]#subPackage[name=test]#subPackage[name=path]#subPackage[name=testclasses]#containedType[name=Foo]#typeMember[index=2]#body#statement[index=2]#else"
