Hi Ada novelist,

I recently learned about Coccinelle (after a French word meaning  
ladybird/ladybug… the authors are French)
http://coccinelle.lip6.fr

The quick introduction on the home page, first made me think about a new  
refactoring tool for C, then later to a semantic analysis provider like  
the one we get with ASIS. However, looking a bit further, it seems to go  
beyond what ASIS do. Mapped to the Ada world, this could be an ASIS  
application, not ASIS on its own.

Just out of curiosity, does any one ever heard about something similar in  
the Ada word ? (proprietary or not, this does not matter, I just want to  
know)
