[cdt-dev] Request for an API-change (comment parsing)

["Schorn, Markus" <Markus.Schorn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
Emanuel Graf has provided two patches that can be seen as a starting
point
for integrating his refactoring work into CDT. Furthermore adding
comments
to the AST works as the basis of implementing task-tags.

While there is no chance to do something on the refactoring itself in
4.0
I think it is a good idea to make the changes to the AST right away,
rather
than having to change the AST after 4.0.
Note that the changes break AST implementers (e.g. fortran project),
only.

Here are the bugs:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=148360
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=182889

If you have objections, please speak up.

Markus.
