How do you generate documentation from MonetDB source files?

I have long appreciated the wealth of information in the comments of source files throughout the code base. It is apparently formatted for some documentation extraction. Can someone provide instructions for generating the documentation from the source? Thanks! Jon

Old versions of MonetDB were documented based on a documentation extraction tool called Mx. which you could find in very old branches (<2012). It has been disabled. We don;t use it anymore. regards, Martin

Hi, is there really no official way to get a proper documentation of the source files? It`s a huge fault from my point of view to not have a good documentation like any other project. A good documentation isn`t hidden in the source code. Regards, Martin
