RE: [cdt-dev] JavaCC and the JJ file.

What I would like to shoot for is that we merge the NewParser1 branch into
HEAD sometime next month so that we can ensure that we are concentrating our
efforts on the solution going forward.  A preference could be provided to
allow the user/developer to choose their parsing framework for the outline
view in order to minimize the risk regarding 1.0.2 quality.   

Not that I'm officially committing just yet (as I'm still pounding through
the ANSI C++ grammar as I write this) ... I'm just wondering if anyone has
an opinion about this strategy.

Thanks, Alain,

We'll also take a look at when we can get enough of the new parser working
to generate ICElements as well.  If this is soon, it might be the better way
to go.

I will take a look at it again, seems so long. To get it going, I wrote a
basic C Preprocessor(although evaluation of expression was still missing)
and moved things around to generate the ICElement. Let me see, if I can dig
this out again.
