- [ ] Types
- [X] Class types passed by pointer
- [X] For parameters (want to call `cPointer()`)
- [X] For return types
- [X] Class types passed by value
- [X] For parameters (need to dereference) e.g. `_SetIcon()`
- [X] For return types (e.g. `_Icon()`)
- ~~want to copy-construct into Go-provided memory~~ Go can't allocate a C++ type
- Return as a heap pointer instead, convert to fake value-type using SetFinalizer
- [X] QString type conversion
- [X] For parameters
- [X] For return types
- [X] QList type conversion (e.g. QWidget::Actions())
- [X] For parameters
- [X] For return types

- [X] For return types
- [ ] COMBINATION: Need to use SetFinalizer?
- [X] QStringList combination type conversion
- [X] For parameters

- [X] Parse from AST
- [ ] Generic replacement
