Hi,

I'm new to clang world, here I have one question about libclang or
libtooling, I would be very appreciate if anyone can help me.

Currently I want to develop a new language, which is C like, just some new
syntax sugars on top of C language, I can modify clang lexer code to make
that, or I can use translator, but if this requirement can be done by
libclang or libtooling, that's perfect simple for me.

My direct impression is there have no way to change language syntax by
libclang/libtooling, libclang/libtooling only can parse and analysis on C
family language, no chance to support other language by library, is this
correct?

Thank you.

Jovi
