Oberon Type Library Tools

Are you a software developer who creates custom ActiveX controls or COM Server applications? After you finished your program, documentation is the last thing you want to spend a lot of time on.

Oberon Type Library Tools is the right instrument to make documenting COM interfaces easier. This utility contains 3 different tools that will help you while preparing documentation. They also come handy when just working on your controls/applications and you want to track your implementation progress. Even if you write COM client application, TLB Tools can help you represent the whole server object model in easy to understand way.

The three tools included in the utility are:

  • TLB2HLP - automatic Windows help file generator. It takes object description information from a type library of your choice and generates the whole help project for Microsoft Help Workshop including the main .RTF file containing all help topics with cross-references, a help context file (.CNT), a help topic map (.INC) file as well as the project file itself (.PRJ). The resulting help project can be compiled right away and be used as a reference manual on the object model.
  • TLB2HTML - creates a single HTML file that contains all objects, modules, types, methods, properties, etc. from the given type library. Very convenient as a syntax reference.
  • TLB Compare - compares two object type libraries and creates an HTML file containing any differences in object description information.

See below for description of each tool.
