Re: Documentation of New Ant Tasks

[Erik Hatcher]

I've not used Doxygen, so can't say for sure, but XDoclet is not about 
generating documentation per se, its about generated templated files 
from metadata contained within Java source code including class Javadoc 
comments, class inheritance, methods, method Javadoc comments, @tags at 
any level allowed, etc.

        http://xdoclet.sourceforge.net/
I don't think we need any math equations for Ant documentation :)

Thanks for the prompt response.
Out of curriousity how does XDoclet compare to Doxygen (www.doxygen.org)
and the other popular Doxygen like system I can't think of at the moment?
Are they two different animals?  When does one use one or the other?  I
think when one needs latex like support for math equations is fairly
straightforward.

For now, change the HTML - this is how it is currently done.
But sometime in the (near?) future I will start migrating the XDoclet
(proposal/xdocs) stuff into the mainstream for complete automated
documentation generation from the source code (with probably some
merging in of examples from external files).

I have been working on fixing the existing optional Visual Age for Java
ant
tasks.  In the process I am also creating a couple new tasks that
complement
the existing VAJ tasks.  My current question is how to document the new
tasks.  The original tasks have a good deal of javadoc comments whose
pattern I have followed but I notice there is more information in the
online manual than is available in the javadoc comments.  From this I
conclude that I should change the html in the manual pages or some source
from which the html files are generated.  I have briefly looked on the
jakarta site but found no guidance on where to start.  Should I really be
looking for some latex document, etc?
