Re: [Mono-docs-list] Translator from monodoc XML format to Microsoft XML format

[Erik Dasque]

Hi all,

we were looking for such a tool to convert our GTK# documentation to 
MS-XML for our upcoming GTK+/GTK# installer in early June.

Is that something that exist today ?

MonoDocs will become a 'native' format and users will be able to 
freely mix
whichever format they have at hand :)

There are some complications. The most notable is that MS-XML covers a 
whole
assembly in one file whereas (from what I've seen) MonoDocs are split 
by
Type.

The MonoDoc format is less complex than the NDoc internal XML, so 
creating a
MonoDoc documenter should not be a major issue. The only part that 
would be
complex is the ILASM and C# signatures; This is one of the most complex
parts in the current documenters' xslt - for the next major release I 
am
looking to provide a much cleaner mechanism.

Kevin

Hi,

Kevin Downs (NDoc team) has already started working on an
NDoc documenter that will convert MS XML format to Monodoc.
It would be great if the conversion from Monodoc (ECMA) to MS
XML format could be implemented as an NDoc documenter too.

Hi Joshua,
I already know XSLT, so I will give it a shot this afternoon (it's
10:30
am
here in Argentina, I will start working on it at 19:00).
Also I will subscribe to mono-docs-list right now, so I will posts
questions there if I have to.
I would like to know who should I refer to when I get something
usable,
in
order to make it part of mono or monodoc.
Best regards,
Rodolfo

Does anyone knows about such a tool?
Since this has come up so many times, I'll work on it
when I get the
chance.  (As I keep repeating on the docs list, the two
formats are
so similar that it would be trivial for anyone to learn XSLT, if
necessary, and write the conversion themselves if they
wanted it.
It would also
make
a nice project if someone is looking for a way to contribute to
Mono.)
