    Are there any tools for lazy developers? For example assume my boss asks me to prepare a design doc :-( Now say I don't like typing in stuff like that and so I just write my program. Now is there some kinda auto-tool that will parse my C++ source and prepare a dummy design doc for me with blanks which I fill in. Like for example it could parse all my classes and list the public methods in a nice formatted fashion etc... or it could list all the cpp files in the project with num of lines and num of classes etc... Is that possible? :~

      I don't have a solution to your particular problem, but I do have a lazy developer tool: The App Creator 9000. At the click of a button it writes a your whole program for you. It even conforms to what ever coding conventions you prefer (so it looks like your code). I'm offering this wonderful product for the low cost of $10,000 (up front of course). Any takers? :)

        Bah! Developers write code. A lazy developer is one who is lazy abt non-coding stuff! So if a developer is lazy about developing code itself he is a fictional character cause then he is not a developer. Anyway even for those pseudo developers I wouldn't recommend App Creator 9000. I've heard complaints about it, seems it removed the lazy class wizard which was there in App Creator 8000. Now it has some kinda silly property window with drop down combos from which to add stuff ;-) Nish

          You could try using Doxygen and write the documentation in the code itself.

                              They do have documentation tools out there. I personally use DOxygen, but you have to put in special comments. But by the time you write something out doesn't that defeat the purpose of a design doc? HomeNuke ---- "Nuke'd Your Home, Yet?"
