Extracting comments from C++ source and generating HTML

Ccdoc is a tool for extracting comments from C++ source code and presenting it in HTML format, very similar to Java’s JavaDoc tool. The tagging used in ccdoc is very similar to that of Javadoc, with adaptations for the C++ specifics, of course. Ccdoc supports extracting comments from both header and implementation files.

In contrast to most other C++ doc’ing applications, ccdoc analyses the code before it has been run through the pre-processor, so things such as macros can actually be included in the documentation.

It’s usage is not quite as straight forward as JavaDoc’s, but considering the quality of the output, it is well worth the effort.
