Amarok doxygen documentation

2011-06-30 Thread sandeep
Hi,

Is the doxygen generated documentation for amarok available somewhere
online? It just seems like a really useful thing for new contributors
(especially the class hierarchy).

Thanks,
Sandeep

 It's not available AFAIK. But if published it's also important to be
 accurate and that is not. A documentation effort probably would not be
 a bad idea, but who has the time to do it?

How much work is needed to make it useful? Documentation is really
important for people like Sandeep.
How far will we get if everyone does a good bit.


Cheers
Lydia

A discussion wrt documentation is on the agenda for our Amarok team
BoF session at DS2011.
Other than that, a good start would be not pushing any code that
doesn't have doxygen comments before class definitions and members.
That's a policy I try to follow, usually I do the bulk of the work on
something and then take a few hours for an intense documentation
effort before pushing/merging.

I agree, actually documentation is important for pretty much everyone
because even if you're able to figure things out, you'll figure them
out more quickly if the code is documented.
It would be cool if somebody with ack skills could do a query to find
out which headers don't have any doxygen in them, that could give us a
rough list of completely undocumented classes.
