DocFlex/XML 1.6.5

DocFlex/XML is the most powerful tool developed by DocFlex Technology (developed on top of the experience accumulated from the previous two: DocFlex/Javadoc and DocFlex/Together).
This tool allows you to visually design the automatic generation of professional quality reports and documentation by the data obtained from your XML files.
The output documents can be generated in RTF and HTML formats. The HTML can be both single-file and multi-framed documentation. The TXT (plain text) output is supported as well, which enables you to use this tool also for various XML file transformations.
Such a generation is programmed using templates, which function a lot the same as the full-blown scripting-language programs (such as XSLT scripts, for instance).
However, the advantage of the template approach offered by the DocFlex Technology is that it requires very few coding of anything manually and allows designing your templates in WYSIWYG form in the terms of things you would expect to see in your output documents rather than on the level of abstract language operators. (See Creating a Sample Template flash tutorial for that matter.)
The templates are visually designed basing on the information obtained from DTD or XSD (W3C XML Schema) files mostly by using mouse and specifying properties in Template Designer dialogs.
The data type information (i.e. XML elements and attributes) appears in various treeviews which are used to program the data processing in the templates.
The formatting of the generated documents is programmed by specifying formatting properties of template components (some of which can be changed simply by dragging mouse in the designer pane). Many of such properties are graphically visualized by the Template Designer.
The output generator can be both launched from the command line and invoked directly from the Template Designers main menu which allows you to immediately see the result produced by your templates yet during designing them (no compilation or running any stand-alone interpreter are required).
