| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Lots of changes: - instances of a class are listed with the class, and instances involving a datatype are listed with that type. Derived instances aren't included at the moment: the calculation to find the instance head for a derived instance is non-trivial. - some formatting changes; use rows with specified height rather than cellspacing in some places. - various fixes (source file links were wrong, amongst others)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reworking of the internals to support documenting function arguments (the Most Wanted new feature by the punters). The old method of keeping parsed documentation in a Name -> Doc mapping wasn't going to cut it for anntations on type components, where there's no name to attach the documentation to, so I've moved to storing all the documentation in the abstract syntax. Previously some of the documentation was left in the abstract syntax by the parser, but was later extracted into the mapping. In order to avoid having to parameterise the abstract syntax over the type of documentation stored in it, we have to parse the documentation at the same time as we parse the Haskell source (well, I suppose we could store 'Either String Doc' in the HsSyn, but that's clunky). One upshot is that documentation is now parsed eagerly, and documentation parse errors are fatal (but have better line numbers in the error message). The new story simplifies matters for the code that processes the source modules, because we don't have to maintain the extra Name->Doc mapping, and it should improve efficiency a little too. New features: - Function arguments and return values can now have doc annotations. - If you refer to a qualified name in a doc string, eg. 'IO.putStr', then Haddock will emit a hyperlink even if the identifier is not in scope, so you don't have to make sure everything referred to from the documentation is imported. - several bugs & minor infelicities fixed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a facility for specifying options that affect Haddock's treatment of the module. Options are given at the top of the module in a comma-separated list, beginning with '-- #'. eg. -- # prune, hide, ignore-exports Options currently available, with their meanings: prune: ignore declarations which have no documentation annotations ignore-exports: act as if the export list were not specified (i.e. export everything local to the module). hide: do not include this module in the generated documentation, but propagate any exported definitions to modules which re-export them. There's a slight change in the semantics for re-exporting a full module by giving 'module M' in the export list: if module M does not have the 'hide' option, then the documentation will now just contain a reference to module M rather than the full inlined contents of that module. These features, and some other changes in the pipeline, are the result of discussions between myself and Manuel Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> (author of IDoc) yesterday. Also: some cleanups, use a Writer monad to collect error messages in some places instead of just printing them with trace.

| | | | | DocEmpty is a right and left-unit of DocAppend (remove it in the smart constructor).

| | | | | | | - Add support for named chunks of documentation which can be referenced from the export list. - Copy the icon from $libdir to the destination in HTML mode.

| | | | | | | Grok the kind of module headers we use in fptools/libraries, and pass the "portability", "stability", and "maintainer" strings through into the generated HTML. If the module header doesn't match the pattern, then we don't include the info in the HTML.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | - copy haddock.css into the same place as the generated HTML - new option: --css <file> specifies the style sheet to use - new option: -o <dir> specifies the directory in which to generate the output. - because Haddock now needs to know where to find its default stylesheet, we have to have a wrapper script and do the haddock-inplace thing (Makefile code copied largely from fptools/happy).

| | | | | Generate a little table of contents at the top of the module doc (only if the module actually contains some section headings, though).
* [haddock @ 2002-04-09 11:33:54 by simonmar]simonmar2002-04-091-2/+6
| | | | | | | | - add the <...> syntax for marking up URLs in documentation - Make the output for data & class declarations more compact when there aren't any documentation annotations on the individual methods or constructors respectively.

| | | | | | | | | | | Remap names in the exported declarations to be "closer" to the current module. eg. if an exported declaration mentions a type 'T' which is imported from module A then re-exported from the current module, then links from the type or indeed the documentation will point to the current module rather than module A. This is to support better hiding: module A won't be referred to in the generated output.

This is Haddock, my stab at a Haskell documentation tool. It's not quite ready for release yet, but I'm putting it in the repository so others can take a look. It uses a locally modified version of the hssource parser, extended with support for GHC extensions and documentation annotations.
