[Synopsis-devel] Announce: Synopsis 0.10 released

[Stefan Seefeld]

I'm happy to announce the release of Synopsis 0.10.

About Synopsis
==============

Synopsis is a multi-language source code introspection tool that 
provides a variety of representations for the parsed code to enable 
further processing such as documentation extraction, reverse 
engineering, and source-to-source translation.


Changes
=======

A lot of work has gone into this project over the last couple of months, 
yielding (among others) these features:

* More information is captured, for example relationships between
   primary class templates and their specializations / instantiations.

* The storage of source-code cross-references has been simplified and
   integrated into the Internal Representation (IR), leading to a much
   more intuitive and convenient user interface.

* The Python parser has been largely rewritten, adding support
   for parsing of dependent (imported) files / modules.

* The DocBook formatter has been rewritten. It now supports Javadoc and
   ReST document markup, too.

* The HTML formatter has been enhanced in many respects. Many bugs have
   been fixed.

* The C and C++ parsers have been enhanced, and many bugs have been
   fixed.

* Some new ASG processors have been added (MacroFilter, TypedefFolder,
   et al.)

* Documentation has been much enhanced.


Here are some examples for online documentation generated with Synopsis:

Synopsis' own C++ API: http://synopsis.fresco.org/docs/Manual/cxx/
Synopsis' own Python API: http://synopsis.fresco.org/docs/Manual/python/
Boost.Python (and dependent) C++ API: http://synopsis.fresco.org/bpl/

Synopsis may be built with boost; it will depend on boost.filesystem, 
boost.wave, and boost.python in that case.
