### Pattern labels ### Pattern labels
The tree pattern matcher tracks the nodes in the tree at matches against the tags in a tree pattern. That way we can use the `get()` and `getAll()` methods to retrieve components of the matched subtree. For example, for pattern `<ID>`, `get("ID")` returns the node matched for that `ID`. If more than one node matched the specified token or rule tag, only the first match is returned. If there is no node associated with the label, this returns null.
