Writing a correct C++ parser is not a simple task.  You might do better
to take an existing parser and wrap it as a Ruby extension.

If you are interested in generating C++ documentation, why not use
Doxygen?  It's open source, so if it doesn't generate documentation
quite the way you would like, you can always submit a patch.
