modify codecompletion plugin to macro parser

[ollydbg]

Kdevelop4 should have the best c++ parser of all OSS IDEs, look their svn for the source:)
But in my opinion the only path for CB's code-completion is using the clang's libs.

hi, what does "clang's libs" mean? I have googled that, but can't find the resource. Can you explain a little? Thanks.

I guess he meant ctags.

Thanks for the hint.
It seems it is a strong compiler which can give more details than the normal compiler. I'm not sure it can replace the CC plugin.

It is just like the Intel compiler, which can give the caret position to the error statement position.

llvm seems like a nice project, but it does not fully support C++ atm (actually I think C::B parser supports more than clang does).

The problem with c-lang is that it is sponsored by big corporates like Apple and they will push it towards they directions (Objective-C/++) so dont expect to get a full CodeCompletion on silver plate

Here is the C++ status of that project:

http://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html  - scroll down and see how in-complete it is atm

just a reminder:

http://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html

seems Clang now fully support C++ in the Parser stage.

Maybe, we could use it to support code-completion.
