Plaintext

cparser is a recursive descent C99 parser written in C99. It contains lexer,
parser, constructs an AST and does semantic analysis. It is currently used as
a frontend to the libFirm intermediate representation, but can be used
independently. cparser is able to bootstrap itself. It currently uses an
external preprocessor.
* fast recursive descent parser, parses C90 and C99
* handles most GCC extensions, e.g. __attribute__, inline assembler,
computed goto, statement expressions
* handles some MSVC extensions (like declspec)
* provides many useful warnings
* format string checker for char and wchar_t
* unreachable code analysis
* missing return statement check, which pinpoints exact location(s)
* write-only/-self variables detection
* missing and redundant forward declarations
* most warnings switches, which are available for GCC
* provides concise messages in case of error, for example when encountering
misspelled typenames
* compiler driver compatible with GCC (-fxxx, -Wxxx, -M, ...)
* uses libFIRM for optimization and code generation (devel/libfirm)
