Re: [lazarus] Databases on the Wiki

2007-07-06 Thread Graeme Geldenhuys

Why not create FPDoc/LazDoc (xml) documentation instead of a wiki
page. Code examples can also be included in fpdoc help as RTL docs
show. That way HTML, PDF or whatever else format FPDoc supports can be
generated. The same as what was done with the RTL, FCL and LCL docs.
We can then link from the Wiki to those files.

Just my 0.02c worth.

Regards,
 Graeme.

I found this page which is directy linked from the main Documentation page:

http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_DB_Faq

It looks quite a weak page. Maybe it's content could be merged into
your Databases page, and then Databases would substitute it on the
main Documentation page, and we can delete the old FAQ page.

It isn't *my* database page, I just found it!

The DB Faq page is already linked from the Databases page, so if the 
Database page just replaced the DB FAQ on the  front documentation  page 
then the FAQ would still be accessible.  Though I agree the FAQ does not 
have much in it that is not covered on the Databases page or in the DB 
Tutorial.

I might do some work in LazDoc later, but I think the level of 
documentation I can write straight away would be more suitable to wiki, 
and also I need others be able to easily check that I am writing is not 
a lot of nonsense!


cheers,
