CppHeaderParser is a pure python C++ header parser that parses C++ headers and creates a data structure that you can use to do many types of things. We’ve found it particularly useful for creating programs that generate python wrappers around existing C++ programs.

robotpy-cppheaderparser is a fork of the CppHeaderParser library originally created by @senex. CppHeaderParser is an excellent library and critical to some of the stuff we do in the RobotPy project. Unfortunately, the maintainer seems to be busy, so robotpy-cppheaderparser was born.

We aim to maintain (some) compatibility with the existing code and make improvements and bugfixes as we need them -- though some decisions made early on in this code's development means some compatibility may be broken as things get fixed.

If you find an bug, we encourage you to submit a pull request! New changes will only be accepted if there are tests to cover the change you made (and if they don’t break existing tests).
