I'm looking for a parser for C. Here is what I need:
It can be part of a project as long as it's decoupled so that I can pull out the parser.
Is there an existing parser that fulfills these requirements?

Parsing is the process to determine whether the start symbol can derive the program or not. If the Parsing is successful then the program is a valid program otherwise the program is invalid.
Recursive Descent Parser uses the technique of Top-Down Parsing without backtracking. It can be defined as a Parser that uses the various recursive procedure to process the input string with no backtracking. It can be simply performed using a Recursive language.
Recursive descent is a top-down parsing technique that constructs the parse tree from the top and the input is read from left to right. It uses procedures for every terminal and non-terminal entity. This parsing technique recursively parses the input to make a parse tree, which may or may not require back-tracking.
If you don't need C99, then lcc is a slam dunk:
One potential downside is that the lcc parser does not build an abstract-syntax tree—it goes straight from parsing to intermediate code.
If you must have C99 then I think tinycc (tcc) is your best bet.

How about Sparse?
