| One of the best features of Python IMHO is the help() function. It’s the first place I turn if I need help before I open a web browser and read the docs. | == AcceptedProjects == |

| I think it would be cool if we could do this: {{{ >>> from java.lang import String >>> help(String) }}} and see the full Javadoc documentation in help format. |

| I think a cool project would be to create a system that could turn source code comments into a format that the Jython help system could consume (perhaps with a Doclet) runtime Javadoc parsing (if you have the source -- this will become especially nice for Sun's newly GPL'ed version) in the case of classes not already exposed with the special __doc string mechanism available in Jython already. | See /PotentialProjects for some ideas. |

| This could be facilitated with an xdoclet like framework which when ran over a source file would produce something Jython could use at runtime. This would either be a cached file or a Java class in a special namespace. For example, if you have class a.b.c.D then maybe the class a.b.c.D_doc might have the document source available through reflection. Of course, help() is not currently working at all in Jython -- so the first step would be to figure out why this is and fix it. Also, we need a strategy for getting the help documentation from CPython into our new style classes. |
