I think the index should be sorted.
Sure, thats easy enough. The index, again, is a quick hack. It was generated by a simple Java program:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/ant/proposal/xdocs/src/org/apache/tools/ ant/xdoclet/IndexGen.java?annotate=1.2
that walks the generated directory structure building very simple HTML. Patches to this are welcome. I won't have time to fiddle with this for a few days at least.
And maybe empty paragraphs (like "Parameters as nested elements" of
http://nagoya.apache.org/gump/javadoc/ant/proposal/xdocs/build/docs/ manual/s
cm/vsslabel.html) donīt have to
be there (so without that header).
The DVSL generation is merely a proof-of-concept. It can easily be tweaked numerous ways, or replaced with other generation mechanisms.
(graphic of Ant is missing in the top right edge).
Oops. I think I can fix that relatively easily, perhaps even just replacing with an absolute URL for the time being.
And there are no samples.
I think at some point a few samples were being included... I'm not sure what it takes to pull them in with DVSL... or whether we want to do that with XDoclet merge points. I think I can get this to happen with XDoclet merge points pretty easily (in a few days or more).
Both (index and pages) into a frameset. (I would prefer frameset about table
because
you have the index page always at the same height if you scroll the manual.)
I hate frames. :) But perhaps for the sake of allowing us to view this to discuss it might be a good idea.
How itīs generated and how should documentation be done?
I don't understand what you're asking here. You know how its generated, right? Ant source -> XDoclet -> XML -> HTML
How should documentation be done? That is what we are here to discuss and refine :)
