Overview

Base class for the RDoc code tree.

We contain the common stuff for contexts (which are containers) and other elements (methods, attributes and so on)

Here’s the tree of the CodeObject subclasses:

  • RDoc::Context

    • RDoc::TopLevel

    • RDoc::ClassModule

      • RDoc::AnonClass (never used so far)

      • RDoc::NormalClass

      • RDoc::NormalModule

      • RDoc::SingleClass

  • RDoc::MethodAttr

    • RDoc::Attr

    • RDoc::AnyMethod

      • RDoc::GhostMethod

      • RDoc::MetaMethod

  • RDoc::Alias

  • RDoc::Constant

  • RDoc::Require

  • RDoc::Include

Instance Method Details

#display?Boolean

Should this CodeObject be shown in documentation?

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


160

162
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 160

def display?
  @document_self and not @ignored
end

#documented?Boolean

Does this object have a comment with content or is #received_nodoc true?

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


187
188
189
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 187

def documented?
  @received_nodoc or !@comment.empty?
end

#each_parentObject

Yields each parent of this CodeObject. See also RDoc::ClassModule#each_ancestor

  while code_object = code_object.parent do

  end

  self
end

#file_nameObject

File name where this CodeObject was found.

See also RDoc::Context#in_files

229
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 225

def file_name
  return unless @file

  @file.absolute_name
end

#full_name=(full_name) ⇒ Object

Sets the full_name overriding any computed full name.

Set to nil to clear RDoc’s cached value



246
247
248
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 246

def full_name= full_name
  @full_name = full_name
end

#ignoreObject

Use this to ignore a CodeObject and all its children until found again (#record_location is called). An ignored item will not be shown in documentation.

See github issue #55

The ignored status is temporary in order to allow implementation details to be hidden. At the end of processing a file RDoc allows all classes and modules to add new documentation to previously created classes.

If a class was ignored (via stopdoc) then reopened later with additional documentation it should be shown. If a class was ignored and never reopened it should not be shown. The ignore flag allows this to occur.
