"c source code" is a nebulous definition. Which version of C, which compiler, which extensions? With support for all the preprocessor commands? You do NOT want to use PLY from scratch for this project unless you really know what you are getting yourself into. For an example of things that can go wrong: http://cacm.acm.org/magazines/2010/2/69354-a-few-billion-lines-of-code-later/fulltext Your best bet is to use something like gcc-xml at: http://www.gccxml.org/HTML/Index.html or Coccinelle at http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/ Odds are your requirements aren't complex enough to require that level of tool support, but perhaps a set of regular expressions is good enough. In any case, it would be hard to answer unless you go into more details. Andrew [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ply-hack" group.
