When User Commands got introduced in Dyalog with version 12.1, the User Commands where expected to reside in a sub folder `Salt\Spice` inside the Dyalog installation folder. This means that the script `ADOC.dyalog` attached to this page must go into this directory. Only then the User Commd "ADOC" is recognized. Note that this script only deal with two issues:

 * Figure out what command the user want to invoke, "Browse" or "List".
 * Find the real work horse and call it, see below.

That script which represents the ADOC User Command assumes that there is a sibling folder of your APL installation folder available named `UserCommands`. Please make sure that the real [[ADOC]] script is copied into this folder `UserCommands`. This enables the User Command script to address the real ADOC script `{MyDyalogInstallationFolder}..\UserCommands\ADOC`.

For example, in case your version of Dyalog APL 32bit is installed in `C:\Program Files (x86)\Dyalog\Dyalog APL 12.1 Unicode` which is the default on Windows 7 64 bit, then the folder `UserCommands` is supposed to be located at `C:\Program Files (x86)\Dyalog\UserCommands`.
Refer to UserCommands/WhereShouldTheyGo for advice how to organize your User Commands.

User Command ADOC

Overview

ADOC is a utility useful to generate documentation (semi-) automatically from class scripts as well as namespace scripts.

Obviously it makes sense to make ADOC's services available as a User Command.

This page offers a small class script ADOC which is designed to do exactly that.

Refer to UserCommands/WhereShouldTheyGo for advice how to organize your User Commands.

Samples

Given that the two different ADOC scripts went into the right folders, this would be a sample session:

      ]?ADOC
"??" for general help, "?CMD" for more specific info on command CMD

 Group  Name         Description
 =====  ====         ===========
 ADOC   ADOC.Browse  Creates full documentation and displayes it in the default browser.
        ADOC.HELP    Displays help regarding ADOC.
        ADOC.List    Prints syntax of all public stuff to the session.

      ]?ADOC.Browse
Command "ADOC.Browse". Syntax: 1 arguments; accepts switches -b=
Script location: ........\....\....\ADOC

Gathers information from a class script, compiles
an HTML page with these pieces of information
and displays it in your default browser.

      ]?ADOC.List
Command "ADOC.List".
Script location: ........\...\...\ADOC

Prints a list with all sorts of information to the session
about all public stuff given in the script specified in the right argument

]ADOC.Help
Watch your browser

Shows extensive information about ADOC. It's basically doing `ADOC.Browse ADOC`.

Download

Download the script.

Version

The script is version 1.2.0 from 2011-08-04
