I’ve been curious about libfirm and cparser but haven't looked at them closely yet. “Firm is a C-library that provides a graph-based intermediate representation, optimizations, and assembly code generation suitable for use in compilers.” http://pp.info.uni-karlsruhe.de/firm/ “cparser is a library containing a parser, lexer and semantic analysis for the ISO C99 language. It should be used as a compiler frontend, a base for source-source transformation, or source-checker tools.” http://sourceforge.net/projects/cparser/ -- Anthony J. Bentley
