Descent and gotoapi

[Ary Borenszweig]

The API provided by Descent includes top level members like classes, 
structs, functions, templates, etc. For each of these you can get a lot 
of information also, like which is the base class of a class, and which 
interfaces it implements, or which is the return type of a method and 
the types of the parameters, etc. (though this functionality is only 
present in the trunk revision, not in 0.4).

So writing a plugin that generates the files required by gotoapi should 
be very, very simple. No changes are required in Descent. :-)

If anyone is interested in doing it, I can give help on how to write an 
Eclipse plugin, and which are the important classes/packages needed to 
do it.
