# eric6.Utilities.ClassBrowsers.idlclbr

Parse a CORBA IDL file and retrieve modules, interfaces, methods and attributes.

Parse enough of a CORBA IDL file to recognize module, interface and method definitions and to find out the superclasses of an interface as well as its attributes.

It is based on the Python class browser found in this package.
