Using CDT to extract method signatures from a file [message #791925]

I am currently trying to develop an application that can parse C / C++ files and extract method signature information and more.
I already have successfully written this to parse Java Files, but it seems i cannot really find out how to parse C files using CDT. All the examples i've found seem to be outdated and the documentation i've found so far is confusing me even more.

Can someone give me an actually working example snippet on how to get an AST from a C/C++ file using CDT? That would be really great.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but i was not successful in parsing a C file using CDT. It seems to me, the framework is able to do that, though it is lacking documentation or examples for it.
