Documentation generator
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Program documentation)
Template:Short description Template:Refimprove In software development, a documentation generator is an automation technology that generates documentation. A generator is often used to generate API documentation which is generally for programmers or operational documents (such as a manual) for end users. A generator often pulls content from source, binary or log files.[1] Some generators, such as Javadoc and Doxygen, use special source code comments to drive content and formatting.
