Objects, types, methods within a module
BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/Objects, types, methods within a module
| ||
| Ive noticed that some 3rd party modules are not well documented. Referring to some objects in the module as TMyClass for example, just the object name no further documentation... is there anyway I could get (extract)a list of the types, properties, methods held within a module? Ideally in some sort of tree view? |

| Load them into Blide |
| ||
| Do a search for HotDocs. Small cost but blooming useful. |
| ||
| Excellent tips, thank you. |
| ||
| Just to be clear, loading them into Blide won't work unless you either have the source code to the module or you have Blide Plus. I don't know if this would be true of HotDocs or not. |
| ||
| Well, another reason to have donated to ziggy then. |

| Ive noticed that some 3rd party modules are not well documented. *phew*... At least I know you aren't talking about mine !!! :-) Just sheer laziness/arrogance if you ask me. And comments like, "read the source code to figure out what do to" doesn't cut it. In that respect it would generally be better for the 3rd party's to have left the modules on their own hard drives... :-p |

| About BLIde and modules information, intellisense and all this things. The free edition of BLIde produces documentation and intellisense for all open source modules installed on the BlitzMax mod folder. Any binary only module (compiled usually comercial ones) requiere a BLIde Plus license to produce intellisense and internal database structures.
