VS 2008 Parsing C-style (curly Brace) Text

I need my application to do some fairly simple C-style curly brace text parsing. The text style is similar to C or C# in that it uses curly braces to define blocks of code.[code]As you can see it also uses C-style comments (//) and can (actually always will) use nested blocks, but only up to one level of nesting is allowed. As you can also see, the code does not have to be formatted neatly. There can be spaces before any opening or closing brace and it will still be valid.The text however is not similar to C or C# in a few ways:

- it does not need a semicolon ; after each 'statement' (abc, def)
- the block names will always consists of one single word except for the possibility of comments behind that word.
- the event names may contain more words
- the block and event names do not end in parentheses ()

I am telling you this because I have a C and C# parser which I can use (it came with the text editor control I am using) but it does not recognize the language I need as valid C or C#, because the block names do not end in parentheses, and the commands are not ended by semicolons. Therefore it keeps doing things wrong (it should automatically outline the text, auto indent it, smart format it etc) because it is expecting C syntax exactly, and it sees my language as loads of syntax errors (missing semicolons etc).So, I need a way to parse the language manually, and it needs to be pretty fast too. Some of the things I need include:

- Getting an entire block (including nested blocks) just from the block name (identifier?).
- Getting all block names (nearly had this working with the help you guys gave me but not completely there yet).
- Getting all event names in a specified block.
- Getting an entire block (or just the block name) just from the current cursor position (if the cursor position is somewhere in block2 I should be able to identify that and return 'block2').
- Probably more...

Then I thought, wait a minute, this C-style language is probably the most used language style, so there should be LOADS of examples online... So I started googling but did not find many relevant things.Is there anyone who has any knowledge about simple language parsers? Anyone who can help me do the things I wrote above..? I realize I am asking for a lot, but the language is pretty easy and I cannot imagine that it is extremely hard to parse it quickly. I also don't require any syntax error checking; all I need are the few things above (mainly retrieving the block names and event names).
