-% Haddock-DH.tex
-\begin{hcarentry}[updated]{Haddock}
-\label{haddock}
-\report{David Waern}%11/10
-\status{experimental, maintained}
-\makeheader
-
-Haddock is a widely used documentation-generation tool for Haskell
-library code. Haddock generates documentation by parsing and typechecking
-Haskell source code directly and including documentation supplied by the
-programmer in the form of specially-formatted comments in the source code
-itself. Haddock has direct support in Cabal~\cref{cabal}, and is used to
-generate the documentation for the hierarchical libraries that come with GHC,
-Hugs, and nhc98
-(\url{http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries}) as well as
-the documentation on Hackage.
-
-The latest release is version 2.8.1, released September 3 2010.
-
-\Separate
-Recent changes:
-\begin{itemize}
-\item HTML backend completely rewritten to generate semantically rich XHTML
- using the xhtml package.
-\item New default CSS based on the color scheme chosen for the new Haskell
- wiki, with a pull-out tab for the synopsis.
-\item Theme engine based on CSS files. Themes can be switched from the
- header menu.
-\item Markup support for executable examples/unit-tests.
-\item Addition of a LaTeX backend.
-\item Additions and changes to the Haddock API.
-\item Various smaller new features and bug fixes.
-\end{itemize}
-
-\FuturePlans
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Although Haddock understands many GHC language extensions, we would like it to
-understand all of them. Currently there are some constructs you cannot comment,
-like GADTs and associated type synonyms.
-
-\item Error messages is an area with room for improvement. We would like Haddock
-to include accurate line numbers in markup syntax errors.
-
-\item On the HTML rendering side we want to make more use of Javascript in order to make
-the viewing experience better. The frames-mode could be improved this way, for
-example.
-
-\item Finally, the long term plan is to split Haddock into one program that creates
-data from sources, and separate backend programs that use that data via the
-Haddock API. This will scale better, not requiring adding new backends to Haddock
-for every tool that needs its own format.
-\end{itemize}
