Perhaps the best thing about CLIF is that it never, ever, parses any C++ by hand [0]. It always uses a state-of-the-art, fully-industrial-strength, well-supported compiler: Clang. And it can be updated in lockstep with Clang near trivially. [0] Actually, there is one tiny exception: CLIF occasionally separates a C++ qualified name on the scope-resolution operator "::".
