David Holt 16.1 1 == Overview ==
2
Chuck Hill 18.1 3 EOModelDoc is a command line tool to generate HTML documentation of a set of EOModels. It is a replacement for [[EOReporter>>http://www.rubicode.com/Software/EOReporter/]] (which will not work on Leopard and newer releases of OS X). EOModelDoc was funded by the Apple iTunes Store and released to the community.

Chuck Hill 18.1 5 On the WOLips side, from version 3.3.x, [[Entity Modeler>>Using Entity Modeler]] has a Documentation tab on all of the elements of a model that lets you record HTML documentation for your model, entities, attributes, etc. There is even an HTML preview. You can then run eomodeldoc to produce documentation much like javadoc for your model.

9 From Mike Schrag: //There's not a nice build process for this one either, yet, because it includes all of the eclipse dependencies in the single jar. Eventually I'll make this nicer and include it actually inside of Eclipse. There are also modifications to the ERNeutralLook coming soon that will display popup help for you models based on the model documentation.//

Chuck Hill 18.1 15 This is an example of the current state of eomodeldoc (the default templates are not done, but it will give you an idea of what it can do). The templates are all Velocity-based, and you can override them with custom versions. This was run in the BugTracker project folder. This model does not have documentation added to it with the new Entity Modeler yet, so it looks a little more bare than it would if it was documented properly. I'll probably document it just to have a full example to show.
