[cfe-dev] Public the interface for cxa_demangler.cpp

[Erik Pilkington via cfe-dev]

No plans as of yet! I never planned to export the AST in this way, doing 
so would probably require some surgery (ie, make all the identifiers it 
uses reserved). I very recently landed r329951 
<http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?view=revision&revision=329951>, 
which provides a simple opaque API to the AST for the copy of the 
demangler in llvm. Maybe this is enough for your use case? What kind of 
analysis are you planning on performing?

Thanks,
Erik
