I have some COBOL code circa 1993-94 that I need to analyze. When I unleash ROBODoc on it the produced files contain no documentation, just the line "produced from ... file by robodoc on ... date". What can I do to make it work? Also, I had to remove all forward slashes '/' from COBOL comments because robodoc interpreted such lines as function declaration ("can't find function name" was the error). I'd appreciate some help. Thank you!
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
ROBODoc can not analyse code. It can only
extract documentation that the programmer put
in the sourcecode. So if there are no robodoc
headers in your cobol sourcecode robodoc will
produce no documentation.
If you want to analyse the cobol source you might
want to try ctags.
( ctags.sourceforge.net )
Hope that help,
Frans.
