DocFlex/Javadoc is an innovative tool for rapid development of professional quality Javadoc doclets. Doclets are programmed in the form templates using a graphic Template Designer. Further, the main template is passed as an argument to a special interpreter called DocFlex Doclet, which, at the same time, serves the role of an ordinary Javadoc doclet. Once launched by Javadoc, the DocFlex Doclet connects to the Doclet API and by interpreting the instructions contained in the templates generates the output documentation. In that way, the pair {DocFlex Doclet + template set} works as a separate and unique Javadoc doclet. MAIN FEATURES: (*) Full support of all new Java 5.0 language features. (*) Simultaneous support of Java 1.4 and Java 5. (*) The Standard Template Set allows instant generation of framed HTML JavaDoc (as well as in the form of a single HTML file) and the exceptional quality RTF JavaDoc with the correct rendering of HTML tags embedded in Java comments (including insertion of images). It is also possible to exclude any classes, fields and methods by the specified tags or annotations. (*) The plain text (TXT) output is supported as well, which may be used for various utilizations of Java code info provided by Doclet API (e.g. generation of XML files). (*) Besides using options on the Javadoc command line, DocFlex Doclet provides a user-friendly Doclet GUI, where you can assign all settings in special inspector dialogs, start the generation, track its progress and stop it at any moment (when needed). (*) A high quality graphic Template Designer allows visual designing of most of things which development is possible otherwise only by direct Java coding. Lots of sophisticated formatting techniques are supported. (*) The whole Doclet API is mapped into a kind of a virtual XML document similar to XML DOM. This allows programming and processing of the data provided by the Doclet API using universal approaches developed for XML (such as XPath).
