APIDOC Namespace Reference

EXTERNALREF Other

Summary

An external source with more information about the API.

Syntax

<EXTERNALREF name="..." value="..."/>
NameTypeDescription
namestringA text description of the reference.
valueURLThe URL for the reference.

Description

EXTERNALREFs will be added to the 'See Also' portion of an ENTRY.  If an EXTERNALREF appears as a child of the API tag, and the value of the URL contains the characters '{e}', the reference will be attached to every entry, and the ENTRYs id will be substituted in for '{e}'.  If '{e}' does not appear in the value attribute, APIDOC assumes that this EXTERNALREF applies to the API as a whole, and only lists it in the table of contents.

If an EXTERNALREF appears as a child of an ENTRY tag, it will only appear in that ENTRYs 'See Also' section.

Multiple EXTERNALREF tags can appear as children of both API and ENTRY tags.

Notes

TYPE can only be contained by the API and ENTRY tags.
