Hi all, I intend to use gcc's C++ parser and the intermediate representation it creates for use in source browsing, etc. I have a few questions regarding this: firstly, is it possible to plug out the parser and intermediate representation code (presumably only in the front-end?) relatively easily? If so, can somebody offer hints on where I could start? I am currently looking into the gcc/cp front-end subdirectory, but clearly, there are a number of dependencies inside the main gcc code as well.
The other question is: the build process for gcc is quite hairy - stage1, etc. etc. Since I am not concerned with code generation or optimization at all, I don't think I would need this. How would I begin simplifying the auto* and Makefile.in's to allow building the parser as a stand-alone entity? Thanks in advance for any help or pointers!
