Lazy developer tools?

Got some bad news for you. Microsoft already came out with it, it's called Visual Basics. Sorry man.

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? :~

but surely that is missing the point. I have this argument all the time with people I work with. A good design before starting coding saves time and effort later. It helps you to know how long something will take and whether the project is worth the effort. It also helps to highlight problems before you go to the trouble of coding something. The worst thing is to write a bucket load of code and then realise that you've made a bad assumption or that there is a flaw in your logic. A design documents allows othe people to pick-up on your mistakes before you make them. Michael :-) Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana

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

All of my opinions are correct, even when reality makes the mistake of disagreeing with me.
