CHM and HTML Documentation for Lazarus ====================================== This directory contains the tools to create the HTML and CHM documentation for Lazarus. The documentation is stored in fpdoc format in the docs/xml/ directory. The build_lcl_docs program requires a docs/chm directory which contains rtl.xct and fcl.xct. The process fails if either the directory or the files are missing. The process creates lcl and lazutils subdirectories for output. Update the content in locallclfooter.xml before starting the script. Scripts contain a path to the FPDoc program which may need to be updated to match your local installation. This allows either FPDoc version 3.2.X or 3.3.X to be used to generate documentation formats. Note: It is recommended to use the FPDoc version from FPC trunk (main). If you are unlucky and got a buggy revision, you can try with the released FPDoc program. For UNIXes: build_html.sh and build_chm.sh will automatically create the documentation for the output formats. Build build_lcl_docs.lpi: ../../lazbuild build_lcl_docs.lpi Update the PATH environment variable in build_chm.sh and build_html.sh for your local installation. Run the script(s), or run build_lcl_docs directly. Run a script: ./build_chm.sh ./build_html.sh Run the program: ./build_lcl_docs --fpdoc /path/to/trunk/fpdoc/fpdoc --fpcdocs=../chm --outfmt chm --footer @locallclfooter.xml For Windows: build_html.bat and build_chm.bat will automatically create the documentation for the output formats. Build build_lcl_docs.lpi: ..\..\lazbuild.exe build_lcl_docs.lpi Update the PATH environment variable in build_chm.bat and build_html.bat for your local installation. Run the script(s), or run build_lcl_docs.exe directly. Run a script: .\build_chm.bat .\build_html.bat Run the program: .\build_lcl_docs.exe --fpdoc \path\to\trunk\fpdoc --fpcdocs=..\chm --outfmt chm --footer locallclfooter.xml .\build_lcl_docs.exe --fpdoc \path\to\trunk\fpdoc --fpcdocs=..\chm --outfmt html --footer locallclfooter.xml FPDoc Version Differences When using FPDoc 3.3.1 or higher, the syntax for the --footer argument was changed. For FPDoc version 3.2.X, the syntax is: --footer=path/to/filename.ext For FPDoc versions 3.3.X, the syntax requires an @ symbol as a prefix for the file name. For example: --footer=@path/to/filename.ext FPDoc versions 3.3.X allows a string of text to be used as the footer. For example: --footer="(c) 2022. All rights reserved." All of the scripts have a commented version of the various commands using the FPDoc 3.3.X syntax. Use the one needed for your system and FPDoc version.
