[CEDET-devel] RE: Re[1]: [cedet-semantic] New C++-parser available - was: Lates semantic f rom CVS?

[Berndl, K. <kla...@sd...>]

Hi,

I have checked in new c.bnf with some new parsing features and some
fixes (see below), a newly generated semantic-c.el and also a new tests/test.cpp
which tests latest fixes.

wchar_t and string-sequences like "str" "str" now works.

But the L"string" or L'c' stuff still fails....

Hmm, maybe Eric could fix this best?

Done! You were right, Eric, in the function-arguments correct pointer
counting and const recognizing was disrupted after my latest changes.
This means parsing was ok, but the output was wrong.

Now i have fixed all this and now it works again! Now all the output
from the new parsing capabilities is correct - at least for this i have
tested ;-)

Yes, this is a very helpful command for this stuff...

Ciao,
