Question

This question is more precise than my previous one: General code completion framework written in C/C++. I did not specify it enough to get answers I really need.

I want to add to my IDE the "Intellisense" code completion. I would love to have a library in C/C++/C++11, that could work as syntactic and symantic code completion tool and be general, not single language specific (I want to write completion for Java, C++ and in the future for C#, Python and Javascript). It would be good if this solution would not be one language centric - it should be general and scalable across languages.

(I have found something called CEDET, which according to its webiste is something I would like to have, but its written in Lisp, not C++.)

Could you please help me with finding the good solution?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The source for Netbeans, Eclipse and IntelliJ is open source these support cross platform "intelisense" code completion. IMHO IntelliJ's is the best. I suspect C++ is not the most elegant language to describe this capability.
