ClangQL

ClangQL is a neat tool that lets you run SQL-like queries on C or C++ code. It uses the GitQL SDK to make this happen. This tool is great for developers who want to analyze and query their code in a structured and efficient way.
Key Features
ClangQL has several cool features that make it powerful for developers:
- SQL-Like Query Language: ClangQL lets you run queries similar to SQL on C or C++ code. You can select specific elements, count things, and filter based on different criteria.
- Case-Insensitive Keywords: All keywords in ClangQL are case-insensitive, just like in SQL.
- Support for Multiple Tables: ClangQL can query different tables like classes, enums, unions, functions, and globals.
Sample Queries
Here are some examples of queries you can run using ClangQL:
SELECT 1
SELECT 1 + 2
SELECT LEN("Clang Query Language")
SELECT "One" IN ("One", "Two", "Three")
SELECT "Clang Query Language" LIKE "%Query%"
SELECT * FROM functions
SELECT COUNT(name) FROM functions WHERE return_type = "int"
SELECT DISTINCT name AS function_name FROM functions
SELECT * FROM globals
SELECT COUNT(name) FROM globals WHERE type = "int"
SELECT * FROM globals WHERE is_volatile
