At least for C, you could use the clang C frontend ( clang.llvm.org ). It's a C frontend that uses a library design, so you should be able to use it in this project. As far as I understand, it can serialize its bytecode, so when the code is compiled "for real", the parsing wouldn't have to be redone. If you could manage to create a flexible on-the-fly code checking system with an example code-checker for C based on clang (that'll also provide C++ and Obj-C support), that'd be quite useful.
