Hi Michael -

Bug 0011728 - FPDoc should insert <short> descriptions of inherited properties or methods into descriptions of linked descendants.

Thank you very much for implementing this. I confirm that it works, certainly on a small sample.

Regards - Chris

Thank you.

In due course, we'll have to implement a more efficient link resolving mechanism, because it's really a very heavy search mechanism currently :(

Michael.

Hi Michael, Vincent and Mattias

I am very pleased with the changes that have been made to FPDoc.

The HTML docs in SourceForge are now generating links correctly to ancestor classes, and within the LCL are reproducing the <short> descriptions of the ancestor in the class definition pages. However, if the link is to the RTL or FCL, although the link is correctly formed (as a hyperlink in the HTML) the <short> description from the RTL or FCL ancestor is not captured.

Examples, #rtl.Classes.TComponent.Create or .Destroy, #rtl.Classes.TPersistent.Assign

We still aren't getting proper links to Protected properties in the RTL or FCL. I don't think we are listing Protected properties in the RTL yet.

Examples, #rtl.Classes.TComponent.Loaded or .Notification

Regards - Chris

That is correct, see
