== Why is this an issue?
include::../why-is-this-an-issue.adoc[]
It is recommended to document the API using *ASDoc* to clarify what is the contract of the API.
This is especially important for public APIs, as they are used by other developers.
=== Exceptions
Classes or class elements with an ASDoc ``++@private++`` comment are ignored by this rule.
[source,flex]
----
/**
* @private // This class and all its elements are ignored
*/
public class MyClass { // Compliant
public var myLabel:String; // Compliant
}
public class AnotherClass { // Noncompliant; class not @private and not documented
/**
* @private
*/
public var name:String; // Compliant
}
----
== How to fix it
Add the missing *ASDoc* for the public classes, methods, properties and metadata.
=== Code examples
==== Noncompliant code example
[source,flex,diff-id=1,diff-type=noncompliant]
----
public class MyClass {
public var myLabel:String;
public function myMethod(param1:String):Boolean {
// ...
}
}
----
==== Compliant solution
[source,flex,diff-id=1,diff-type=compliant]
----
/**
* my doc
*/
public class MyClass {
/**
* my doc
*/
public var myLabel:String;
/**
* my doc
* @param param1 my doc
* @return my doc
*/
public function myMethod(param1:String):Boolean {
// ...
}
}
