@ -177,6 +177,12 @@ proc getType*(n: NimNode): NimNode {.magic: "NGetType", noSideEffect.}
## resolve recursive types, you have to call 'getType' again. To see what
## kind of type it is, call `typeKind` on getType's result.
proc getType*(n: typedesc): NimNode {.magic: "NGetType", noSideEffect.}
## Returns the Nim type node for given type. This can be used to turn macro
## typedesc parameter into proper NimNode representing type, since typedesc
## are an exception in macro calls - they are not mapped implicitly to
## NimNode like any other arguments.
proc typeKind*(n: NimNode): NimTypeKind {.magic: "NGetType", noSideEffect.}
## Returns the type kind of the node 'n' that should represent a type, that
## means the node should have been obtained via `getType`.
