class DocChecker:
    """
    Documentation completeness checker.  C{DocChecker} can be used to
    check that specified classes of objects are documented.  To check
    the documentation for a group of objects, you should create a
    C{DocChecker} from a L{DocIndex<apidoc.DocIndex>} that documents
    those objects; and then use the L{check} method to run specified
    checks on the objects' documentation.

    What checks are run, and what objects they are run on, are
    specified by the constants defined by C{DocChecker}.  These
    constants are divided into three groups.  

      - Type specifiers indicate what type of objects should be
        checked: L{MODULE}; L{CLASS}; L{FUNC}; L{VAR}; L{IVAR};
        L{CVAR}; L{PARAM}; and L{RETURN}.
      - Public/private specifiers indicate whether public or private
        objects should be checked: L{PRIVATE}.
      - Check specifiers indicate what checks should be run on the
        objects: L{TYPE}; L{DESCR}; L{AUTHOR};
        and L{VERSION}.

    The L{check} method is used to perform a check on the
    documentation.  Its parameter is formed by or-ing together at
    least one value from each specifier group:

        >>> checker.check(DocChecker.MODULE | DocChecker.DESCR)
        
    To specify multiple values from a single group, simply or their
    values together:
    
        >>> checker.check(DocChecker.MODULE | DocChecker.CLASS |
        ...               DocChecker.FUNC )
