Path: utzoo!utgpu!news-server.csri.toronto.edu!cs.utexas.edu!tut.cis.ohio-state.edu!ucbvax!ucsfcgl!pixar!fishkin From: fishkin@pixar.UUCP (Ken Fishkin) Newsgroups: comp.lang.c++ Subject: classdoc Message-ID: <9787@pixar.UUCP> Date: 24 Mar 90 18:14:21 GMT Reply-To: fishkin@pixar.UUCP (Ken Fishkin) Organization: Pixar -- Marin County, California Lines: 386 I posted yesterday pointing out the existence of two tools for generating "man" pages (at least to a first approximation) from C++ ".h" files: _classdoc_ and _genman_. I have received a number of requests (including one from the author, Dag Bruck), that I post the former. It follows below. We have hacked it a bit to recognize C-style comments of the form /* * line after line * of comment: first line is just slash-star, * and last line is just star-slash */ And also to throw out some of the RCS-generated comment lines. Thanks again to Dag Bruck for creating _classdoc_ in the first place. Ken Fishkin ...ucbvax!pixar!fishkin ----------------------------------------------------------- # classdoc.awk # # This awk script tries to produce a manual page from a C++ header file. # The idea is to make the documentation more readable, without maintaining # a separate file. Typical usage: # # gawk -f classdoc.awk list.H | nroff -man # # Although the result may not be exactly as intended, nothing in the file # (except #if, #ifdef, #ifndef, #endif) is supposed to be thrown away. # Major problem: comments associated with stuff that is saved (typedef, #define, # etc.), is not saved but appears with some unrelated code. # Improvemnts are gratefully accepted. # # Author: Dag Michael Bruck, Department of Automatic Control, Lund Institute # of Technology, Box 118, S-221 00 Lund, SWEDEN.
