C syntax parser [closed]

Question

Are there any libs out there that can parse C syntax?

For example I would like to write my own code/scripts that will analyze c files given the c syntax. Number of "if" statements per function/file, lines of comments per lines of code in a function and so on.....

I have no problem writing all this custom code just wanted to make the job easier if there was already some lib that I can use to jump start instead of starting with the parser.

Thanks!

Besides the clang suggestion already made, consider pycparser and Boost.Wave.
