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::Mixin

    • RDoc::Include

    • RDoc::Extend

Instance Method Details

#display?Boolean

Should this CodeObject be displayed in output?

A code object should be displayed if:

  • The item didn’t have a nodoc or wasn’t in a container that had nodoc

  • The item wasn’t ignored

  • The item has documentation and was not suppressed

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


162
163
164
165
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 162

def display?
  @document_self and not @ignored and
    (documented? or not @suppressed)
end

#documented?Boolean

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

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


193
194
195
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 193

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

#file_nameObject

File name where this CodeObject was found.

See also RDoc::Context#in_files

220
221
222
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 218

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



239
240
241
# File 'lib/rdoc/code_object.rb', line 239

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 displayed 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 displayed. If a class was ignored and never reopened it should not be displayed. The ignore flag allows this to occur.
