10.2 - Description        top

This POC provides an example of a code and documentation generator driven by a simple textual model. The model describes a set of APIs, specifying their interface and describing their function, and allows to describe the relevant steps of each API. These descriptions are then copied as comments into the generated C code. The generator produces one skeleton C source file for each function and an HTML documentation file describing all the interfaces.

Purpose of the POC is to provide an example of a concise textual model for simple custom generation tasks.

All output files are generated from the input model file listed in the following table.
