Status
------

This change has been discarded.


Review request for KDevelop.


Bugs: 280244
    http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280244


Repository: kdevelop


Description
-------

This patch fixes incorrect parsing of declarations like "int (func)(int);" - where the declarator id is inside parentheses but it is not a function pointer, as well as some more issues. I have attached a file comparing old and new parsing results. It shouldn't affect anything that was already parsed successfully.
Additionally it eliminates some code duplication: now both parseDeclarator and parseAbstractDeclarator call parseDeclaratorInternal.

However, still a lot of old problems remain: 
 -function pointers are displayed as functions
 -grouping in declarations like "int *(test[3])" is dropped so it becomes "int *test[3]"
 -function types as template parameters are not handled correctly - "std::function<void(int)>" becomes "std::function<void>" somewhere in builders
and fixing them doesn't look that easy.

This is my first contribution to kdevelop and I hope I haven't broken anything :)

Testing
-------

Current git head is pretty broken so I tested using commit 4ac7ec339a29ee419f08d9ff29ce544e8a710c7c.
All tests pass (except for qtprinters, what is unrelated to this patch).
