Parsing C

So I'm taking another stab at writing a quasi-literate-programming tool, which, as I am writing things in C with it, requires a credible C parser to find declarations of stuff.

And while Perl has lots of C parsing tools of varying quantity, including a sample with Parse::Eyapp (which is quite fascinating in its own right), none of them are easily adapted - with the exception of the Inline tools.  Inline::C::ParseRegExp, for example, which does exactly what I want it to - find declarations of stuff.

Python, though, has pycparser.  (And of course, Perl has Inline::Python...)

And then, as always, there is Marpa.  I still have a big fat to-do on my list that says "Learn Marpa".  There's a new set of tutorials on Kegler's blog.  I need to work through those.

Update: I realized I was wrong.  I don't actually need a parser - just a tokenizer for C.  This is because all I need to do is cross-reference all identifiers, and the job is done.
