Hello,

to  analyze the source code, I thought that gcc uses flex  and bison. but I red 
yesterday in a presentation done on 2008 that gcc  did not use those old tools.
I tried to verify and I find that for  c++ in the cp directory there is lex.c it 
means that gcc still use flex  bison to parse source code;
did someone has as better knowledges  about gcc analysis and can give me a 
better idea about which tools are  used by gcc to parse source code?

thank you very much.

Asma
