I'm looking for something to turn my C# XML comments into documentation. I don't like CHM's, nor MSDN's look and feel. I love using the javadocs. They're easy to navigate, and everything is accessible. I am looking for a tool I can use to convert the comments in my code to a javadoc like look and feel.
Is there something that does this? I've tried Sandcastle and its various GUI's but they don't do what I want.
Does C++ have anything similar to javadoc? Yes. Here are a few (listed alphabetically by tool name): ccdoc supports javadoc-like syntax with various extensions.
JavaDoc tool is a document generator tool in Java programming language for generating standard documentation in HTML format. It generates API documentation. It parses the declarations ad documentation in a set of source file describing classes, methods, constructors, and fields.
Javadoc is a documentation tool which defines a standard format for such comments, and which can generate HTML files to view the documentation from a web broswer. (As an example, see Oracle's Javadoc documentation for the Java libraries at http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/.)
Step 1 − Open eclipse, select the option Project →Generate Javadoc. Step 2 − Select the javadoc.exe file from the bin folder of java installation directory, select the destination folder for the generated java doc and select Next. finish button.
Probably you can use Doxygen ?
