Instead of having two files — the IDL and IDD — and trying to keep them in sync, I’ve moved the descriptions over to the IDL file as javadoc-style comments. For example in: http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.1F2/master/svg.idl search for the three characters “/**”. > This is the output of converting the IDL to an XML representation (with > unreadable formatting), using my IDL parser: > > http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.1F2/master/svg.idlx > > Eventually that file won’t be in the repository, and will be generated > automatically. I have added that automatic generation now. It also extracts the javadoc-style comments out of the IDL and includes them in the XML file, so that publish.xsl can grab them out easily. I’ve tweaked the format of the IDL section in the chapter a bit more, too: http://mcc.id.au/temp/struct.html#DOMInterfaces Comments about the format/style welcome. -- Cameron McCormack ≝ http://mcc.id.au/
