Parser for 32-bit and 64-bit Mach-O binary/executable formats in C++ [closed]

Question

I'm looking for a C++ library that can parse 32-bit and 64-bit Mach-O binary format. I don't need anything fancy, just a disassembly and splitting the file into its sections, so no decompilation, name demangling and so on.

I know I can either rip open any existing disassembler or craft my own binary parsers using the format specification from Apple, but I was kind of hoping not having to go that far, especially if someone else has done the work for me.

Many thanks!

You can start with the open-source class-dump tool (http://www.codethecode.com/projects/class-dump/). It can read both 32 and 64 bits Mach-o binaries, and is known to have a decent parser.
