DCT: The Document Comprehension Tool

update: 3/14/2001 I've found some projects working very nearly along the same lines as mine. The Software Development Foundation (SDS) is a system supporting analysis and manipulation of source code in multiple languages, based on an XML format for storage and inter-communication between SDS-compliant tools. Very much like my own design! Also, the Synopsis project describes itself as a code documentation tool with support for multiple languages; perhaps not as ambitious at SDS or my DCT, but more achievable... I may need to think about alliances with or support of these efforts. Along similar lines, the Introspector project, rather than create a new code analysis tool, seeks to augment the existing GCC compiler system to store the information needed for analysis tasks -- potentially leveraging the depth of GCC to create a system more powerful than any individual tool.
