[cdt-dev] Using Eclipse CDT's Parser in a Standalone Refactoring Tool

Hi I'm currently an student doing a project which involves creating a program capable of representing a C project (files, functions...etc) visually and which will allow the user to perform simple higher as well as lower-level refactorings via the graphical interface itself. I originally intended to use the GCC translation framework available with ANTLR for the job of parsing the C files and source code in but someone else recommended that I perhaps consider Eclipse CDT's parser instead.

I was wondering if I could get some feedback as to whether the CDT parser would be well suited for a project of this nature. Ideally the parser would be capable of catering for preprocessor directives, be able to read in different C files as a single project and perform code transformations with ease. It would also be much appreciated if I could perhaps be pointed to other standalone projects, examples which use the CDT parser in this manner or maybe even tutorials if they exist. Thanks alot in advance

Cheers
