Is there anything in works to generate JavaDocs from templates? I suppose
a tag can be created to process it's body content, but then it needs to be
put into the compiled java classes.

Short answer: No, nothing is in plan

But what are you looking for?

Well i what i wanted was the comments in the templates to be converted to
java doc comments in the class that is generated from the templates.

I see two things it can be useful for:
-If there was a way to create javadoc comments for the entire class and
the generate method, then there'd be a way to generate the javadoc file
for the templates.

-Also, if the comments within the templates were put into translated java
files it'd be easier to debug when stepping through transform run.

I'm thinking about changing the source for Jet to handle Comments
differently. What I want to do is to create JavaDocs from comments '<!--
....--!>' I only need the class level java doc comments. Anyone know
what packages and classes I need to look at to change this?

If you do this, I'd be interested in having this contributed...

JET generates its Java code via a JET template (is anyone surprised):

org.elcipse.jet/templates/v2/jet2java.jet

The template doesn't use any tag, only embedded Java
scriptlets/expressions.

I works against the AST for the JET template (package
org.eclipse.jet.core.parser.ast). The class you care about there is
Comment.

The template traverses the AST via an visitor. Right now, it ignores
Comment objects. It'd be easy enough to add something like to the visitor
insider the generate method:

<%
public boolean visitComment(Comment comment) {
%>
// <%= comment.getCommentText() %>
<%
return true;
}
%>

This is, of course, too simple. You'd have to handle newlines in the
comment text (the new IndentTag.indent() might be useful).

You also might want to think about whether some comments might include a
special flag that would cause them to placed at other locations in the
output. Some ideas...
<%-- @header
... copyright information
--%>
<%-- @class
... Class Java doc
--%>

Again, I'd be very interested in a contribution.

After having written all this, I decided the code was 90% done. Have have
just included the above changes in a fix for

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=205811

It will appear in Monday's build.

Thanks for the update Paul. I'll try out the build. When will this be
available in a release? Will it be in 0.9.0?
