Indirect Parents

The indirectParents parameter (parents(), hasParentClass(), hasAllParentInterfacesOf methods etc.). specifies whether or not to retrieve parent opf the parent (indirect parents). By default, indirectParents is false e.g.

For above inheritance hierarchy is possible to retrieve:

1. Direct parents of ClassC (ClassB):

Konsist
	.scopeFromProject()
	.classes()
	.first { it.name == "ClassC" }
	.parents() // ClassB

2. All parents presents present in the codebase hierarchy (ClassB and ClassC):

Konsist
	.scopeFromProject()
	.classes()
	.first { it.name == "SampleClass" }
	.parents(indirectParents = true) // ClassB, ClassA

Notice that only parents existing in the project code base are returned.
