Using the g++ front end

[Dave Davies <Dave_Davies at reech dot com>]

Hi,

I am looking at using the g++ front end to parse C++ headers to obtain class
definitions. From section 18.4.2 of the gcc manual:

Almost all non-function members are available on the TYPE_FIELDS list. Given
one member, the next can be found by following the TREE_CHAIN. You should
not depend in any way on the order in which fields appear on this list.

Is there no way to determine the order of class data members, or am I
misreading something? I need this information in order to start looking at a
simple object database storage mechanism. Also, any examples you know of
which show how to use g++ as a front end would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
