Programming language documentation standards

Now that all my test cases pass for every language, I have the task of documenting Smiley So, I'm now researching what's standard documentation practice for each of the languages I wrote an implementation of my secret project in.

First, Java:

Perl:

PHP:

  • phpDocumentor
  • What else is there for PHP? Is there anything more standard?

Python:

C++:

Yeah, I have no clue what documentation standards I should use. I can use Javadoc-style comments, for instance, but is there anything that can process that and produce HTML documentation for it?

Update: Newest info here.

Melatonin - bad

Took melatonin

doing that again

Awesome quote by Milton Friedman

A society that puts equality -- in the sense of equality of outcome -- ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality nor freedom. The use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom, and the force, introduced for good purposes, will end up in the hands of people who use it to promote their own interests.

The quote loses some of its force because it's out of the context of the book I got it from -- A Conflict of Visions pg 130 -- but it stands on its own pretty well. I'll have to google Milton Friedman to find out who he is Smiley

Free market capitalism in weblog specs

While I'm not all that interested in the whole Atom vs. RSS debate, one thing I have found interesting is that the competition is making both things better. It's free-market capitalism in action. Dave felt competition coming from the Atom space, so he decided to hand off RSS to a neutral third party, clarify parts of it, etc., and now he's been working on improving the MetaWeblog API since Atom intends to compete in that space as well. See, when there's competition, just about everybody benefits.
