Finally, the Mac users get a good tool for documenting their projects. VisDoc may even be ahead of most of it's PC counterparts when it comes to features.
Martijn de Visser is maintaining a great list of tools for documenting Actionscript code. VisDoc is his latest finding. For a good time now, most tools for documenting Flash projects have been PC based. Now there's a new Mac tool for documenting AS2 projects that parses methods, properties, class type, subclasses, interfaces and supports linking of classes. VisDoc can parse most of the JavaDoc tags, as well as some extra Flash related ones. The HTML output can easily be re-styled using CSS and XSL. VisDoc may also output XML files, but we have not been able to verify if these are compatible with the Flash built-in reference or if it can be used with applications such as gModeler. All in all, this is the most complete tool we've seen for documenting AS2 code.
