ABLDoc understands the default comment convention (as discussed in the Adding comments
section), if you want to change the format of the comments, you can add a custom tag
parser to parse the comments.
Copy the abldoc-core.jar file from
{DLC_HOME}\oeide\eclipse\plugins\com.progress.openedge.pdt.abldoc.core_11.5.0.00\lib
into an Eclipse project or a folder.
Create a class that implements the ITagParser interface (available in the
abldoc-core.jar file)
Override the getHandleTypes and populateTags methods.
Note: getHandleTypes method should return the type of object comments (like
methods or procedures) that is to be parsed using this parser. All the
supported types are available in the DocType enum. The populateTags method
is called for all the objects that you want to handle (the types returned by
the getHandleTypes); this method is called back with the IDocModel
parameter. It has all the information about the program elements such as raw
comment parameters.
Parse the comment and populate the tag objects
(com.progress.openedge.pdt.abldoc.core.model.Tag) in the IDocModel. You can use the populated tags in the templates or custom
serializer.
