Hi All, I have just discovered that the Wiki allows us to create redirect pages. I can't find this documented in the tigris wiki help, but it does work. It means we can create a page, with only the text:
#REDIRECT <PageName> ...and anyone who loads the page, will automatically be redirected (with an appropriate message) to another page defined by PageName. I also noticed that any words written in CamelCase (i.e. most classes) are automatically turned into links on the assumption that these might one day be link to real pages. Perhaps we could use these two things as a big aid to the reader of the cookbook. My suggestion is as follows: a) For each class used in argouml, we create a redirect page, directing the reader to the relevant page of the cookbook. Doing this will automatically make every class reference link to the useful documentation describing how that class is used. If the cookbook gets expanded or changed, then we only have to change one redirect page per class, to make the class universally link to a different page. b) Alternatively, we could use the same method to link to externally generated javadoc documentation for argouml. I have tried a) out for FigAssociation just as a test, but I'd like to know whether people think it is a good idea.: http://argouml.tigris.org/wiki/FigAssociation Regards, Dave P.S. Just to be clear, I'm not suggesting that we create wiki pages for classes which would duplicate the javadoc information. In fact, we should avoid this. ------------------------------------------------------ http://argouml.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=450&dsMessageId=993794 To unsubscribe from this discussion, e-mail: [[email protected]].
