General code completion framework written in C/C++

Question

Is there any framework written in C/C++/C++11 for writing code completion tools? Or maybe are there some libraries that allow code completion for Java or C++ (also written in C++?). I'm writing my custom IDE in C++ for Java (and not only Java) development and I want to add code completion support to it the best possible way, without reinventing the weel ;)

clang_complete is a plugin for vim for accurately completing C, C++, Objective-C and Objective-C++ code: https://github.com/Rip-Rip/clang_complete/ It uses clang - an open source C++ compiler written in C++ for doing the job. I guess you may find it useful.
