ClangQL is a tool that allow you to run SQL-like query on C/C++ Code instead of database files using the GitQL SDK.
Samples
Note that all Keywords in ClangQL are case-insensitive, similar to SQL.

We can query information from any node kind with in the same TranslationUnit no need to re parse the files over and over so we should cashe it and only perform parsing for new files
Describe the bug
Built clangql from git on macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 with rust 1.71.1 and the resulting binary is crashing due to unset LC_RPATH, and hence the binary fails to load libclang.dylib
$ clangql
dyld[50112]: Library not loaded: @rpath/libclang.dylib
Referenced from: <2E046823-CCFD-39AC-8724-B8765694F2F4> /usr/local/bin/clangql
Reason: no LC_RPATH's found
Abort trap: 6
