I want to explain my thoughts a little. The reason I want to deprecate the C++ parser is because I don't want to send wrong information as if it is supported.
In the first place there are a lot of computer languages in the world. we (GLOBAL development team) can't be able to support all of them. So, we made a plug-in parser mechanism for GLOBAL. Using the mechanism, anyone can write a parser for their favorite language and incorporate it into GLOBAL. (see plugin-factory/) My hope is that users will write parsers for themselves. Of course, if you write a parser for some language, I recommend publishing it for everyone to use. Each parser should be distributed freely and separately from GLOBAL itself. I hope that someday the built-in parsers of GLOBAL will be unnecessary.
