I'm new to MoDisco and I'm needing to reverse engineer some c/c++ code. Is there a c/c++ discoverer available and how do I get it?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

We currently don't have discovery support for C/C++.
All the available MoDisco components are described from http://wiki.eclipse.org/MoDisco#Reference_Documentation.
Of course, we would welcome every relevant contribution in this area.

Best regards,

Hugo

Do you know if anybody has used a C++ parser to develop a C++ discover?

Thanks,

Jim

The MoDisco Java metamodel and corresponding model discoverer are based on (and use) JDT.
So a similar approach could be followed for C++: CDT could be used to build a C/C++ metamodel and a related model discoverer.

Any progress on the development of a C++ reverse engineering discoverer?
How about EMF4CPP?

To answer my second question: As far as I have found out from the XText file, EMF4CPP just supports a small subset of C++ (e.g. no namespaces, no support for embedded C or asembler code Confused

Anyone coming to this thread over Google and still looking for solutions: it is not possible to develop a C/C++ discoverer by using Xtext and, therefore, no such Xtext DSL for C or C++ exists! The reason for this is simple: Xtext does not support semantic predicates which are required to parse C/C++ ASTs. Please also see https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/441096/, https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/202846/ and https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/640630/

Hello,
I am currently doing my C++ code generation from Papyrus UML diagrams using Acceleo; is there any plugin for the reverse way from code to papyrus diagrams by now, and if not, if I would put some work into writing one myself, what would be a good starting point, that EMF4CPP or MoDisco or maybe some completely different Eclipse plugin?
Thank you.
