Delphi Component Help Builder

Delphi Component Help Builder is a RAD help authoring tool allows to build a Windows Help files for Delphi component based on its source code to be integrated into Delphi IDE help system environment. Originally it was designed to quickly and easy create and support a help file for Delphi components and components library. The help file created looks professional, similar to help file supplied by Borland. WHelp allows to import data from .PAS and .DPK files, extract object, function or procedure declarations, parse it and create or update the component structure displayed as tree view for better navigation and save all this data into the database. All what's left to do is add text description to each element of the component. 

WHelp based on this data builds a help file which contains a separate topic for each object, property, method, event and routine found in your source code files. List of properties, methods and events will be built as well and display in a separate window. All related topics will be properly linked. Hierarchy window will display the component inheritance including the direct parent even it's not defined in the project, i.e. standard Delphi components and classes. Since the help file will be included into Delphi IDE help system clicking this link will bring up front the correct help topic. Any element of the project, i.e. unit, object, property, method or event can be easily excluded from the help by making the element inactive.
