What do you mean by that ? In general you need to do some semantic analysis to parse C++
(eg: what is x * y; ?). How you could get involved depends on what you would be
interested to work on. One of the first step is probably to gain familiarity with
the codebase. Familiarity with the standard(s) is also going to be required depending
on what you want to work on.
