Re: [Evolution-hackers] Any documentation around anywhere?

I'm a professional software developer and I've been writing code since I was ten, so I'm not out of my element or anything. Ha! Are you sure mate? We're kinda 1337 aroun here you might not be up to speed :) (i'm totally joking of course!) However, I was wondering if there was any documentation lying around about the class hierarchy in Evolution? I figured if there was, it would save me a lot of time tooling around to figure out the basic structure of things. Unfortunately, free time is something that can be pretty elusive. I know we all hate documenting code (at least I do) so it's probably likely that it hasn't been done yet, but I was hoping against hope that there might be some docs out there already? There are a ew bits and pieces, but not a whole hell of a lot :( there's some stuff in camel/devel-docs, but a lot of it is a bit out of date, and only relevent if you're interested in low-level email stuff. Unofortunately for most things you have to resort to the source. Although at least the coba compnent like wombat (addressbook/calendar) are wrapped in corba idl's. -- Joe Khoobyar Ankhcraft where technology is our art http://www.ankhcraft.com Voice: (703) 200-7871 Fax: (703) 941-1175 ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
Re: [Evolution-hackers] Any documentation around anywhere?
We already have something like this called GtkDoc - and the inline comments in Camel already contain comments in the correct format in order to be extracted by the tool, but someone has to go and setup the makefiles to do it.

I don't know of a tool for C/Cobra code, although it shouldn't be too hard to do one. On Thu, 2002-06-13 at 23:47, Joe Khoobyar wrote: . . .
