=head1 NAME

Glib::GenPod - POD generation utilities for Glib-based modules

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Glib::GenPod;

 # use the defaults:
 xsdoc2pod ($xsdocparse_output_file, $destination_dir);

 # or take matters into your own hands
 require $xsdocparse_output_file;
 foreach my $package (sort keys %$data) {
     print "=head1 NAME\n\n$package\n\n";
     print "=head1 METHODS\n\n" . podify_methods ($package) . "\n\n";
 }

=head1 DESCRIPTION 

This module includes several utilities for creating pod for xs-based Perl
modules which build on the Glib module's foundations.  The most important bits
are the logic to convert the data structures created by xsdocparse.pl to
describe xsubs and pods into method docs, with call signatures and argument
descriptions, and converting C type names into Perl type names.  The rest of
the module is mostly boiler-plate code to format and pretty-print information
that may be queried from the Glib type system.

To make life easy for module maintainers, we also include a do-it-all function,
xsdoc2pod(), which does pretty much everything for you.  All of the pieces it
uses are publically usable, so you can do whatever you like if you don't like
the default output.

=head1 DOCUMENTING THE XS FILES

All of the information used as input to the methods included here comes from
the XS files of your project, and is extracted by Glib::ParseXSDoc's
C<xsdocparse>.  This function creates an file containing Perl code that may be
eval'd or require'd to recreate the parsed data structures, which are a list of
pods from the verbatim C portion of the XS file (the xs api docs), and a hash
of the remaining data, keyed by package name, and including the pods and xsubs
read from the rest of each XS file following the first MODULE line.

Several custom POD directives are recognized in the XSubs section.  Note that
each one is sought as a paragraph starter, and must follow a C<=cut> directive.

=over

=item =for object Package::Name

All xsubs and pod from here until the next object directive or MODULE line
will be placed under the key 'I<Package::Name>' in xsdocparse's data
structure.  Everything from this line to the next C<=cut> is included as a
description POD.

=item =for object Package::Name (Other::Package::Name)

Generate POD in I<Package::Name> but for the package I<Other::Package::Name>.
This is useful if you want POD to appear in a different namespace but still
want the automatically generated hierarchy, signal and property listing,
etc. from the original namespace.  For example:

  =for object Gnome2::PanelApplet::main (Gnome2::PanelApplet)
  =cut

This will create Gnome2/PanelApplet/main.pod containing the automatically
generated documentation for Gnome2::PanelApplet (hierarchy, signals, etc.) plus
the method listing from the current XS file.

=item =for enum Package::Name

=item =for flags Package::Name

This causes xsdoc2pod to call C<podify_values> on I<Package::Name> when
writing the pod for the current package (as set by an object directive or
MODULE line).  Any text in this paragraph, to the next C<=cut>, is included
in that section.

=item =for deprecated_by Package::Name

Used to add a deprecation warning, indicating I<Package::Name> as an
alternative way to achieve the same functionality.  There may be any number
these in each package.

=item =for see_also L<some_thing_to_see>

Used to add extra see alsos onto the end of the parents, if any, for a given
object.  Anything following the space behind see_also up to the end of the
line will be placed onto the list of "see also"s.  There may be any number of
these in each package.

=item =for apidoc

=item =for apidoc Full::Symbol::name

Paragraphs of this type document xsubs, and are associated with the xsubs
by xsdocparse.pl.  If the full symbol name is not included, the paragraph
must be attached to the xsub declaration (no blank lines between C<=cut> and
the xsub).

Within the apidoc PODs, we recognize a few special directives (the "for\s+"
is optional on these):

=over

=item =for signature ...

Override the generated call signature with the ... text.  If you include
multiple signature directives, they will all be used.  This is handy when
you want to change the return type or list different ways to invoke an
overloaded method, like this:

 =for apidoc

 =signature bool Class->foo

 =signature ($thing, @other) = $object->foo ($it, $something)

 Text in here is included in the generated documentation.
 You can actually include signature and arg directives
 at any point in this pod -- they are stripped after.
 In fact, any pod is valid in here, until the =cut.

 =cut
 void foo (...)
     PPCODE:
        /* crazy code follows */

=item =for arg name (type) description

=item =for arg name description

The arg directive adds or overrides an argument description.  The
description text is optional, as is the type specification (the part
in parentheses).  If you want to hide an argument, specify C<__hide__>
as its type.  The arg name does I<not> need to include a sigil,
as dollar signs will be added.  FIXME what about @ for lists?

=back

Also, we honor a couple of "modifiers" on the =for apidoc line, following the
symbol name, if present:

=over

=item - __hide__

Do not document this xsub.  This is handy in certain situations, e.g., for
private functions.  DESTROY always has this turned on, for example.

=item - __gerror__

This function or method can generate a Glib::Error exception.

=item - __function__

Generate a function-style signature for this xsub.  The default is to
generate method-style signatures.

=item - __deprecated__

This function or method is deprecated and should not be used in newly written
code.

=back

(These are actually handled by Glib::ParseXSDoc, but we list them here
because, well, they're an important part of how you document the XS files.)

=back

=head1 FUNCTIONS

=over

=cut

=item xsdoc2pod ($datafile, $outdir='blib/lib', index=undef)

Given a I<$datafile> containing the output of xsdocparse.pl, create in 
I<$outdir> a pod file for each package, containing everything we can think
of for that module.  Output is controlled by the C<=for object> directives
and such in the source code.

If you don't want each package to create a separate pod file, then use
this function's code as a starting point for your own pretty-printer.

=cut

=item add_types (@filenames)

Parse the given I<@filenames> for entries to add to the C<%basic_types> used
for C type name to Perl package name mappings of types that are not registered
with the Glib type system.  The file format is dead simple: blank lines are
ignored; /#.*$/ is stripped from each line as comments; the first token on
each line is considered to be a C type name, and the remaining tokens are the
description of that type.  For example, a valid file may look like this:

  # a couple of special types
  FooBar      Foo::Bar
  Frob        localized frobnicator

C type decorations such as "const" and "*" are implied (do not include them),
and the _ornull variant is handled for you.

=item $string = podify_pods ($pods, $position)

Helper function to allow specific placement of generic pod within the auto
generated pages. Pod sections starting out with =for position XXX, where XXX
is one of the following will be placed at a specified position. In the case of
pod that is to be placed after a particular section that doesn't exist, that
pod will be still be placed there.

This function is called at all of the specified points through out the process
of generating pod for a page. Any pod matching the I<position> passed will be
returned, undef if no matches were found.  If I<position> is undef all pods
without sepcific postion information will be returned. I<pods> is a reference
to an array of pod hashes.

=item $string = get_copyright

Returns a string that will/should be placed on each page.  You can control
the text of this string by calling the class method I<set_copyright>.

If no text has been set, we will attempt to create one for you, using what
has been passed to I<set_year>, I<set_authors>, and I<set_main_mod>.  The
year defaults to the current year, the authors default to
'The Gtk2-Perl Team', and the main mod is empty by default.  You want the
main mod to be set to the main module of your extension for the SEE ALSO
section, and on the assumption that a decent license notice can be found in
that module's doc, we point the reader there.

So, in general, you will want to specify at least one of these, so that you
don't credit your work to us under the LGPL.

To set them do something similar to the following in the first part of your
postamble section in Makefile.PL.  All occurences of <br> in the copyright
are replaced with newlines, to make it easier to put in a multi-line string.

  POD_SET=Glib::GenPod::set_copyright(qq{Copyright 1999 team-foobar<br>LGPL});

Glib::MakeHelper::postamble_docs_full() does this sort of thing for you.
