gen_manual - a program for automatic generation of manual from source code

Introduction

This simple C++ program generates a single-page HTML manual from lz4.h.

The format of recognized comment blocks is following:

  • comments of type /*! mean: this is a function declaration; switch comments with declarations
  • comments of type /** and /*- mean: this is a comment; use a <H2> header for the first line
  • comments of type /*= and /**= mean: use a <H3> header and show also all functions until first empty line
  • comments of type /*X where X is different from above-mentioned are ignored

Moreover:

  • LZ4LIB_API is removed to improve readability
  • typedef are detected and included even if uncommented
  • comments of type /**< and /*!< are detected and only function declaration is highlighted (bold)

Usage

The program requires 3 parameters:

gen_manual [lz4_version] [input_file] [output_html]

To compile program and generate lz4 manual we have used:

make
./gen_manual.exe 1.7.3 ../../lib/lz4.h lz4_manual.html
