PLDoc 1.3.10 - now with PL/Scope !!!

There is a new PLDoc release (and an associated maven-pldoc-plugin release - 2.19) that has 2 new features:-

• Minimal support for CREATE [ OR REPLACE ] ... JAVA ... statements - Database Java may now have the same visibility that PL/SQL does.

Support is limited - it currently takes the @headcom comment from the CREATE ... JAVA statement. It does not pull the Javadoc from the Java source.

• Procedure call information
  There is new draft support for generating "Calls:" and "Called By:" sections within the Body page of Packages.

The option works only when generating documentation from a database and because merging the PL/Scope information significantly increases the processing time this functionality is off by default: it must be explicitly requested.

With each PLDOC application you have to specify the new plscope option:

pldoc.sh and pldoc.bat - add the plscope command-line flag

In the Ant task - add the plscope="true" property.

In the maven-pldoc-plugin POM file - add the <plscope>true</plscope> property.
