Happy Holi everyone (holi is an Indian festival of colors)
Thank you Nicolas for your valuable response
I understood all your points and will surely make changes in the proposal.
The tools here I referred are both pygccxml and libclang.
There is trade off for both the tools:-
1). Pygccxml takes up a quite a bit of computation time while libclang is better in this case.
2). Pygccxml is quite mature and also has a proper documentation which gives it advantage over libclang.
3). Pygccxml generates a nice AST which is really understandable and easy to work with while this is not the case in libclang.
4). Still libclang is really popular C++ parsing tool and is under continuous development which gives us an excellent opportunity to explore it.
So, I think it's worth it to use both of them to parse header files.
I definitely know that the most important part of the project is about extracting most of the information from the header files, but I thought that the ultimate goal is to create YAML files for the GRC. I will definitely make these changes and I'm really sorry for the confusion created due to this in the proposal.
So, Should I proceed using both the tools?
