Is there anyone out in net.land who has written, used, or
read about any kind of document extraction tools? As part
of my Master's research, I've written several small, fairly
simple C programs to produce reports directly from code. An
example of this is a program to print an alphabetized listing
of the functions defined in a file, including information
such as the function's return type, parameters and their types:
cs_query cs_object.c line 176
RETURN TYPE void
2 PARAMETERS
query_code query_code_type
response_code ptr to response_code_type
Some of the other reports are a glossary of user-defined constants,
and an alphabetized listing of user-defined types. The main idea
is that a lot of helpful information can be taken directly from code.
Any information on tools such as these would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help!
