wake.ir.expressions.elementary_type_name_expression module

ElementaryTypeNameExpression class

Bases: ExpressionAbc

May be used:

• in a FunctionCall type conversion expressions, e.g. address(this),
• as type argument, e.g. type(uint256).max,
• as a FunctionCall argument, e.g. abi.decode(x, (uint256)).
