As part of the Darwin Open Source project, a couple of years ago we
developed HeaderDoc to support C and C++ documentation generated from
header comments, using JavaDoc as a model.
HeaderDoc has now been extended to support Objective-C. You can get it
from here:
http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/headerdoc/
And full documentation is here (as well as in the download package):
http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/headerdoc/docs/HeaderDoc.html
It took us a while to get to Objective-C because there are other
solutions such as AutoDoc, so we were happy to not take on the extra
work. But we got a number of requests from people using HeaderDoc who
wanted to use one tool for all their Cocoa/Carbon code, so it seemed
like a good thing to add.
It is an Open Source tool written in Perl, so feel free to add
modifications and submit them, or to make feature requests. The
HeaderDoc development mailing list can be joined from this page:
