Ifacecheck utility
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
1) INTRODUCTION
|
|
|
|
This utility compares the wxWidgets real interface contained in the "include"
|
|
hierarchy with the wxWidgets interface used for documentation purposes and
|
|
kept in the "interface" hierarchy.
|
|
|
|
Ifacecheck warns about incoherences (mainly wrong prototype signatures) and
|
|
can even correct them automatically. It uses the XML outputs of the gccxml utility
|
|
(see http://www.gccxml.org) and of the Doxygen utility (see http://www.doxygen.org)
|
|
to do the comparison.
|
|
|
|
It's explicitly designed for wxWidgets documentation needs and is probably of little
|
|
use for anything else than wxWidgets docs reviewing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2) PREREQUISITES FOR USING IT
|
|
|
|
To use this utility you'll need at least:
|
|
- wxWidgets "include" and "interface" headers tree
|
|
- Doxygen installed
|
|
- Gccxml installed
|
|
|
|
|
|
3) HOW TO USE IT (on Linux)
|
|
|
|
First, create the doxygen XML:
|
|
|
|
> cd docs/doxygen
|
|
> ./regen.sh xml
|
|
> cd ../..
|
|
|
|
Next, create the gcc XML:
|
|
|
|
> ./configure # configure wxWidgets as you would do when building it
|
|
> cd utils/ifacecheck
|
|
> ./rungccxml.sh
|
|
> cd ../..
|
|
|
|
Last, build and run ifacecheck:
|
|
|
|
> cd utils/ifacecheck/src
|
|
> make
|
|
> make install
|
|
> cd ..
|
|
> ifacecheck -u wxapi-preproc.txt wxapi.xml ../../docs/doxygen/out/xml/index.xml >ifacecheck.log
|
|
|
|
Now you should have the log of the utility saved in 'ifacecheck.log'.
|
|
Its contents should be easy to interpret.
