I have the parsing side done as part of my compiler/repl. I can
produce ASTs with doc comments attached to arbitrary nodes
(e.g. classes, methods, fields, statements, whatever). The AST nodes
also contain all of the information like parameter types/names, return
types, thrown exceptions, etc.
I have a proof-of-concept class that just prints this information out,
but the sky's the limit with how you want to format it. If anyone is
interested in hooking this up with the doclet API (or anything else
for that matter) I can provide assistance, just drop me a note.
