I agree Rich. It's a bit un-reliable. However, I've messed around with my "doxyfiles" quite a lot now and it works great with most things I've thrown at it. I'm amazed how clients seem to be impressed with its output! I guess their not used to us Flash developers being interested in documentation ;0) To be fair, AS2 is actually not really supported by Doxygen, it works at the moment just cause AS2 is a "Java-like" language. Doxygen is really cool I think and it's a really active open-source project. I heard someone saying they're about to add support for Flex/MXML documentation! That'd be sweet! One of my own projects I've been researching (as time has permitted me) is to "tap in" to the way the EMF (Eclipse Modelling Framework) works in Eclipse with Java and "re-gig" it to work with As2/3. As you guys know, with the EMF, you can either model your project by "drawing" UML diagrams and it spits out code for you or you can create classes/interfaces and it spits out models/graphs for ya. Heck, you can even pass it the data as a set of XMI files and it will transform them to models and vice versa - in a roundtrip fashion. Even by following the tuts in the help files, I think the learning curve is quite steep for most Flash developers. My ultimate goal is to do this easily and effortlessly with As2/3 inside Eclipse and release it as open-source.
