29 The GNU C++ library sources have been specially formatted so that
30 with the proper invocation of another tool (Doxygen), a set of
31 indexed reference material can generated from the sources files
32 themselves. The resultant documentation is referred to as the API
33 documentation, and is useful for examining the signatures of public
34 member functions for the library classes, finding out what is in a
35 particular include file, looking at inheritance diagrams, etc.
39 The API documentation, rendered into HTML, can be viewed online:

83 The rendered HTML, as above, is also available for download on the
84 gcc.org site in a directory located at
85 <literal><URL:ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/libstdc++/doxygen/></literal>.
86 You will almost certainly need to use one of the
87 <link xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="http://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html">mirror sites</link> to download
88 the tarball. After unpacking, simply load libstdc++-html-*/index.html
93 In addition, a rendered set of man pages are available in the same
94 location specified above. Start with C++Intro(3).
