To do this I first need a way of grabbing the classes from source code and retrieving the public/published properties and methods. I will then parse this information and generate source code that is compatible with Lua. Instead of creating my own recursive descent parser, is there anything out there that may already parse Delphi source code into maybe a tree or other structure that I can then grab the information from? cheers, Cheers, Paul.

You can use ModelMaker to parse your source code. It has a nice API for examining all of the modules in your project, and all of the classes in each module, as well as the members (fields, methods, properties) of each class. If you're wanting something free, there's CodeWrench http://cc.borland.com/Item.aspx?id=23831 ....its usable but it is beta quality.

If you have BDS 2006, you can enable the "Generate XML documentation" option in the IDE settings, then compile the code normally. You can then process the resulting XML file, which will contain everything you are asking for. Otherwise, you will have to parse the original Pascal code directly.

Gambit Can Delphi 6 do this as well? I have Delphi 6 and Delphi 5. Cheers, Paul.
