|
|
AutoGen is a tool designed to simplify the creation and maintenance
|
|
of programs that contain large amounts of repetitious text. It is
|
|
especially valuable in programs that have several blocks of text that
|
|
must be kept synchronized.
|
|
|
|
AutoGen can now accept XML files as definition input, in addition to
|
|
CGI data (for producing dynamic HTML) and traditional AutoGen
|
|
definitions.
|
|
|
|
A common example where this would be useful is in creating and
|
|
maintaining the code required for processing program options.
|
|
Processing options requires multiple constructs to be maintained in
|
|
parallel in different places in your program. Options maintenance
|
|
needs to be done countless times. So, AutoGen comes with an add-on
|
|
package named AutoOpts that simplifies the maintenance and
|
|
documentation of program options.
