Re: [sc-dev] scdoc in scide

[Jakob Leben <jakob.leben@xxxxxxxxx>]

At present, documentation is parsed on-the-fly just before viewing, and this process uses the SC language, so you would need to implement communication with the SC language to get that information.

In my opinion the SC documentation system would be much more useful if there was plain C++ code to do all the work, with only a tiny SC language wrapper. This way any other clients (like the IDE) could easily parse and use the documentation.

Jonatan, what do you think?

Hi,

I'd like to improve the scide autocomplete by adding class description and examples. (see https://github.com/supercollider/supercollider/issues/368)

However, what I understand, scide doesn't have a direct access to the SC documentation and I have to implement it and as I don't see any trivial solution, I' prefer to ask for suggestions.

Thanks,
Vincent.
