See Makefile for the build script.

Once in the project's directory from Microsoft Compiler, simply run nmake build.

This will generate an executable called jdoc.exe, and an object code file jdoc.obj.

nmake build

If you need to delete the executable and object code at any time, nmake clean can be used. Please remember to build again before trying to run the application.

nmake clean

Once built, JDOC can be ran with Microsoft Compiler CLI. JDOC requires two command line arguments to run successfully:

• -i specifies the input file you wish to read from.

• -o specifies name of the file you will be outputting to.

Output files can be called anything you wish, however special characters and spaces should be avoided.

Input files are currently limited to either Student.java or Rectangle.java. These could be extended by adding new Java files into the /src directory.

Example valid Student.java run command:

jdoc -i Student.java -o Student_doc.txt

Example valid Rectangle.java run command:

jdoc -i Rectangle.java -o Rectangle_doc.txt
