Question
I have inherited a flex project which is sadly not documented. Im looking for a documentation generation tool / class diagram generater or something like that which works with actionscript. There are around a 1000 class files and I don't have the time to step through all the code in debug.
I have tried a few tools like Doxygen (set the language to java) and NaturalDocs but that didn't work out too well.
Solution
No idea for the document generation, BTW, would it really help with a huge bulk ASDoc ?
Regarding the diagram generation I posted an answer for the following question. Not sure the guy ever found out, I'm interested about the matter as well.
OTHER TIPS
Consider this just a pointer, but Enterprise Architect supports round-trip source code engineering for Actionscript (it's the only tool that can generate UML from AS source code, that I'm aware of).
I haven't used it much, just tried it some time ago, but perhaps it's worth a shot. I think it has a 30-day free trial.
If anybody else is looking for an answer, I would recommend using Crocus Modeller, UML modeling tool for AS3 & FLex with reverse engineering feature.
