Re: [pygccxml-development] Problems with GCC_XML

[Roger D. <rog...@da...>]

Robert,

As far as I understand, GCC_XML works by accessing GCC's internal 
representation of the parsed C++ source. This information is not 
available in a regular version of GCC. You need a patched version of GCC 
to get at this data. GCC_XML includes this patched version.

I actually think running Linux in a virtual machine inside Windows is 
the easiest solution, but then again, I'm familiar with Linux :)
