Description Tony Chen CLA 2011-12-30 02:12:05 EST 
This bug captures the IDE enhancement to support or leverage EGLDoc. The work related to language definition, compiling and model should be tracked by Bug 353524 - EGLDoc syntax.

When implemented, each of the item should have a separate bug 

EGL Editor enhancement, add EGLDoc partition, add support for format, indent, smart line start, content assist completion proposal etc..

Content Assist enhancement, display EGLDoc in additional information windows when showing proposals. 

EGLDoc view, a view shows the doc of the element selected in the EGL editor
	
EGLDoc export(generation) wizard

Compiler setting for processing EGLDoc

Hi tony,

1>Java provide tools in command line to generate java doc. Do we need to support this functions in 0.8?
2>So far egl editor do not support "hover" function, do we need to support this function in 0.8.

Show doc info when mouse hover on a Part/Function/Variable is pretty useful feature, I think we should have that. The information display is the same as that in DocView. 

The SDK tool would be needed if we want to generate doc out of IDE. That needs to be covered by another bug, maybe Bug 353524 - EGLDoc syntax. This bug will focus on the IDE functions.

Changing to Future for now.  We can move it back to .8 at a later date if there is more time.
