Ever since I started using C# I've
missed two things from Java; checked exceptions and
Javadoc. Checked exceptions doesn't look like it's
showing up any time soon but it looks like I may get
the other after all. C# has an
XML comments syntax that is similar to Javadoc
comments and can be extracted into a single document
but there was no way simple to convert it to HTML
that I knew of because XSLT (my tool of choice for
processing XML documents) couldn't generate mutliple
HTML files which I'd need for producing something
like Javadoc output.
Thanks to
Oleg this
is no longer the case. Come to think of it the
article already has an implementation of something
similar to Javadoc for the C# XML format but uses the
MSDN formatting style instead of the Javadoc one.
Sweet.
