[Ctool-develop] ctool development

[Stefan S. <se...@sy...>]

hi there,

I just agreed with Shaun to integrate the ctool code
into synopsis (http://synopsis.fresco.org), as a C
backend.

Shaun agreed to relicense the code under LGPL, so it
can be used in a framework integrated with GPL-incompatible
parts (the rest of synopsis is already licensed under
LGPL).

As the ctool project itself doesn't seem to evolve any
further at this point, I'd like to invite everybody
who is interested in further development to join
the synopsis project.

Synopsis is a general code introspection tool with
currently a focus on code documentation. Ctool will
give it a new language binding, and stimulate a broader
set of AST types so arbitrary code can be introspected
('statements'), not just 'declarations'.

You can find a copy of the ctool repository at
http://synopsis.fresco.org/viewcvs/Synopsis/Synopsis/Parsers/C/ctool/

where I'm going to restructure it a bit to fit better into
the whole.

I'm open to comments, criticism, and suggestions as to how
to procede from here.

Take care,
		Stefan
