I think it is! So everyone, try it out and help improve it! Even if it is by commenting on it, reporting bugs etc. What could be better in Semantic / CEDET is e.g.: 1) Parsing speed -- Parsing in elisp is sloooow for large files. Maybe we need a real semantic-parser written in C or some other fast language. 2) Refactoring -- given the capabilities it should be possible to refactor a variable. This is one tool, I am really impressed with in Eclipse, and would like to see in Emacs. Arne -- [--- PGP key FD05BED7 --- http://www.root42.de/ ---]
