Has anyone created a c++ parser with boost::spirit?
I dont know if anyone has (though I believe Hartmut Kaiser created a C parser) but AFAIK the problem with C++ parsers in general is that they dont tell the whole story, because in C++ there is a huge amount of context specific information.
Isn't this the problem with /all/ parsers, and in general, it is an AST treewalker that actually determines the context ? As in, if you would want context, you would parse, build and AST, and then walk over the AST to determine the context... just as with any language ? Regards, Leon Mergen
