[cfe-dev] libclang support for Matchers

[James Mitchell via cfe-dev]

For the usage of strings clang already has and is recommended to use of
clang-query which supports the same strings.

This would just be moving it from a command line interface to a C API.

I am open to other alternatives if anyone has some.

As the dynamic matchers use strings, what stability concerns do you have?



Will the supported strings be stable?
