Compillation of C/C++ parser for SourceNav5.0 under windows

Compillation of C/C++ parser for SourceNav5.0 under windows

[Chu, Casing]

Hi 

I recently downloaded the newest version of SourceNavigator (version 5.0)
and was interested in the C/C++ parsing tool that was used.  The source for
the C/C++ parsing tool was found //source/snavigator/parsers/cpp from the
file  SN50-010322-source.tar.qz from the following location :
http://mirrors.rcn.com/pub/sourceware/sourcenav/releases/ .  My question is
how would I be able to seperately compile the parser?  and in addition how
would I be able to seperate the parser as a stand alone utility?

some other people are interested in similar things:

Well, I don't think it would be too hard to build the
parser stand alone.  Start reading the makefile in the parser
directory is probably the best place to start.

I don't think the parser would be of much use as a stand alone utility.
You could use the parser with a database and make manual queries
into the database.
