How do you think about to take another look at issues like the following? > Coccinelle doesn't support any languages other than C, and a small amount of C++. Support C++ codebases https://github.com/coccinelle/coccinelle/issues/1 How many design elements can be shared for programming languages which have got similar properties? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_programming > For C++, it parses the C-like parts of the code, and ignores the rest. Exclusion of unsupported source code parts https://github.com/coccinelle/coccinelle/issues/20 > It could be conceptually possible to design a version of Coccinelle > for other languages, but it would require a lot of development work, > so funding would be required.
