Hi there, The Synopsis project is looking for volunteers to enhance its C++ parser and source code introspection facilities. The Synopsis project (http://synopsis.fresco.org) started some years ago with the goal to provide a more robust and flexible alternative to code documentation tools such as doxygen and javadoc. As it evolved, it became clear that the infrastructure could serve in a much broader context, and so the current goal is to provide a framework for code introspection. Some obvious use cases include semi-automatic language-binding generation (such as done by boost.python's pyste) as well as reverse engineering and refactoring tools. Synopsis with its current code base is able to parse most of boost (as I posted earlier I have been working with David Abrahams to generate a reference manual for boost.python), though there are some C++ constructs it can not yet fully analyse. My goal is to provide a fully standard compliant C++ parser with C++ and python APIs to access the processing pipeline as well as the abstract syntax tree for maximum power and flexibility. You'll find the project mailing lists at http://synopsis.fresco.org/mailinglists.html Kind regards, Stefan
