D Programming/Documentation comments

From Wikibooks, the open-content textbooks collection

The -D option to the dmd activates the generation of Ddoc. This means, special comments in the code are used to write a HTML file. The advantage of code-comments are:

• code and documentation are near at each other. Better chance to be consistent
• easy to use

dmd generates documentation per module.
