Re: Can I get access to an AST of parsed ADA code?

code (GIMPLE was much to low level for me because I want to maintain
variable names and such).

Is there a way I can access the parser for either C++ or ADA so that I
can access a high level parsed version of my code? If not, can a parser
dump command be recommended?

For C++ you can use GCC_XML from http://www.gccxml.org/HTML/Index.html, and for Ada you have ASIS2XML, http://www.pushface.org/asis2xml.

For Ada the code will have to be compilable by a version of GNAT with its corresponding ASIS implementation.
