NAME

       autodia - a perl script using the Autodia modules to create UML Class Diagrams or documents. from code or other data sources.

INTRODUCTION

       AutoDia takes source files as input and using a handler parses them to create documentation through templates. The handlers allow AutoDia
       to parse any language by providing a handler and registering in in autodia.pm. The templates allow the output to be heavily customised from
       Dia XML to simple HTML and seperates the logic of the application from the presentation of the results.

       AutoDia is written in perl and defaults to the perl handler and file extension matching unless a language is specified using the -l switch.

       AutoDia requires Template Toolkit and Perl 5. Some handlers and templates may require additional software, for example the Java SDK for the
       java handler.

       AutoDia can use GraphViz to generate layout coordinates, and can produce di-graphs (notation for directional graphs) in dot (plain or
       canonical) and vcg, as well as Dia xml.

       "autodia -i 'filea fileb filec' : use filea, fileb and filec as input"
       "autodia -i filename -p ..      : use ../filename as input file"
       "autodia -d directoryname       : use *.pl/pm in directoryname as input files"
       "autodia -d 'foo bar quz'       : use *pl/pm in directories foo, bar and quz as input files"
       "autodia -d directory -r        : use *pl/pm in directory and its subdirectories as input files"
       "autodia -d directory -F        : use files in directory but only one file per diagram" =item "autodia.pl -d directory -C	: use
       files in directory but skip CVS directories"
       "autodia -o outfile.xml	       : use outfile.xml as output file (otherwise uses autodial.out.dia)"
       "autodia -O		       : output to stdout"
       "autodia -l language	       : parse source as language (ie: C) and look for appropriate filename extensions if also -d"

       "autodia -z		       : output via graphviz"
       "autodia -Z		       : output via springgraph"
       "autodia -v		       : output via VCG "
       "autodia -s skipfile	       : exclude files or packagenames matching those listed in file"
       c<autodia -D			: ignore dependancies (ie do not process or display dependancies)>
