It picks up the .inc files but our .inc files are just of the
implementation portion of the code. If I understand how Pasdoc works it
is pulling it's information from the interface portion of the code. So
in other words it isn't even trying to read any information in the .inc
files.
It would be nice if it could pull procedure and function descriptions
from the implementation section since this would make the code cleaner
to read. Putting complex descriptions with in the class definition seems
to get somewhat messy to me. Maybe Marco can look into that when he gets
back into Pasdoc in about a week or so.
The above is the reason why the Pasdoc output is rather thin. While some
documentation has been done in the implementation sections, where the
procedures are placed, the interface sections are largely devoid of any
comments or descriptions.
I plan on taking one set of files say buttons.pp or dialog.pp and edit
that as an example of what needs to be done to work with Pasdoc. I'll
announce when I have that done and commited.
