Re: need people to add documentation to glib?



Silence again?

Anyway, how to bring up a decision that

(a) glib methods should be fully documented with their set of
    pre-conditions and post-conditions. A lot of functions
    have some check-functions in their implementation to
    print a warning and return with a value which can help
    in deriving pre-conditions and that should be in the
    docs so that developers don't need to read the source
    code of glib.
(b) create extensions on the documentation processor to
    get at a docbook master xml file that can be turned
    into proper troff man pages. It would need to include
    per-function manpages and it would be good to have them
    contain cross-references to overview pages that decribe
    in short words a function family and their design.

thank you, guido                            http://xmlg.sf.net
