[section boost/python/function_doc_signature.hpp]
[section Introduction]
Boost.Python supports docstrings with automatic appending of Pythonic and C++ signatures. This feature is implemented by class `function_doc_signature_generator`. The class uses all of the overloads, supplied arg names and default values, as well as the user-defined docstrings, to generate documentation for a given function.
[endsect]
[section Class `function_doc_signature_generator`]
The class has only one public function which returns a list of strings documenting the overloads of a function.
``
namespace boost { namespace python { namespace objects {
class function_doc_signature_generator
{
public:
static list function_doc_signatures(function const *f);
};
}}}
