The purpose of getPatternIndex and getId

[samedit66]

Hello! I'm trying to use a query to extract nodes from the tree. My code:

        TSQuery all_declarators = new TSQuery(_language, "(variable_declarator) @decls");
        TSQueryCursor cursor = new TSQueryCursor();
        cursor.exec(all_declarators, node);
        TSQueryMatch match = new TSQueryMatch();
        while (cursor.nextMatch(match)) {

        }

I found out that match has methods called getPatternIndex and getId, but what are they used for? I though getId might return index of the node of interest but it seems not... I tried getPatternIndex but stuck with the same result

Hi.

The getPatternIndex() method should return the pattern index in the query. The getId() method returns the id of the match(index in the match list for now).
