"""
Classes for encoding API documentation about Python programs.
These classes are used as a common representation for combining
information derived from introspection and from parsing.

The API documentation for a Python program is encoded using a graph of
L{APIDoc} objects, each of which encodes information about a single
Python variable or value.  C{APIDoc} has two direct subclasses:
L{VariableDoc}, for documenting variables; and L{ValueDoc}, for
documenting values.  The C{ValueDoc} class is subclassed further, to
define the different pieces of information that should be recorded
about each value type:

G{classtree: APIDoc}

The distinction between variables and values is intentionally made
explicit.  This allows us to distinguish information about a variable
itself (such as whether it should be considered 'public' in its
containing namespace) from information about the value it contains
(such as what type the value has).  This distinction is also important
because several variables can contain the same value: each variable
should be described by a separate C{VariableDoc}; but we only need one
C{ValueDoc}, since they share a single value.

class APIDoc(object):
    """
    API documentation information for a single element of a Python
    program.  C{APIDoc} itself is an abstract base class; subclasses
    are used to specify what information should be recorded about each
    type of program element.  In particular, C{APIDoc} has two direct
    subclasses, C{VariableDoc} for documenting variables and
    C{ValueDoc} for documenting values; and the C{ValueDoc} class is
    subclassed further for different value types.

    Each C{APIDoc} subclass specifies the set of attributes that
    should be used to record information about the corresponding
    program element type.  The default value for each attribute is
    stored in the class; these default values can then be overridden
    with instance variables.  Most attributes use the special value
    L{UNKNOWN} as their default value, to indicate that the correct
    value for that attribute has not yet been determined.  This makes
    it easier to merge two C{APIDoc} objects that are documenting the
    same element (in particular, to merge information about an element
    that was derived from parsing with information that was derived
    from introspection).

    For all attributes with boolean values, use only the constants
    C{True} and C{False} to designate true and false.  In particular,
    do I{not} use other values that evaluate as true or false, such as
    C{2} or C{()}.  This restriction makes it easier to handle
    C{UNKNOWN} values.  For example, to test if a boolean attribute is
    C{True} or C{UNKNOWN}, use 'C{attrib in (True, UNKNOWN)}' or
    'C{attrib is not False}'.

    Two C{APIDoc} objects describing the same object can be X{merged},
    using the method L{merge_and_overwrite(other)}.  After two
    C{APIDoc}s are merged, any changes to one will be reflected in the
    other.  This is accomplished by setting the two C{APIDoc} objects
    to use a shared instance dictionary.  See the documentation for
    L{merge_and_overwrite} for more information, and some important
    caveats about hashing.

    An index that .. hmm...  it *can't* be used to access some things,
    cuz they're not at the root level.  Do I want to add them or what?
    And if so, then I have a sort of a new top level.  hmm..  so
    basically the question is what to do with a name that's not in the
    root var's name space.  2 types:
      - entirely outside (eg os.path)
      - inside but not known (eg a submodule that we didn't look at?)
      - container of current thing not examined?
    
    An index of all the C{APIDoc} objects that can be reached from a
    root set of C{ValueDoc}s.  
    
    The members of this index can be accessed by dotted name.  In
    particular, C{DocIndex} defines two mappings, accessed via the
    L{get_vardoc()} and L{get_valdoc()} methods, which can be used to
    access C{VariableDoc}s or C{ValueDoc}s respectively by name.  (Two
    separate mappings are necessary because a single name can be used
    to refer to both a variable and to the value contained by that
    variable.)

    Additionally, the index defines two sets of C{ValueDoc}s:
    \"reachable C{ValueDoc}s\" and \"contained C{ValueDoc}s\".  The
    X{reachable C{ValueDoc}s} are defined as the set of all
    C{ValueDoc}s that can be reached from the root set by following
    I{any} sequence of pointers to C{ValueDoc}s or C{VariableDoc}s.
    The X{contained C{ValueDoc}s} are defined as the set of all
    C{ValueDoc}s that can be reached from the root set by following
    only the C{ValueDoc} pointers defined by non-imported
    C{VariableDoc}s.  For example, if the root set contains a module
    C{m}, then the contained C{ValueDoc}s includes the C{ValueDoc}s
    for any functions, variables, or classes defined in that module,
    as well as methods and variables defined in classes defined in the
    module.  The reachable C{ValueDoc}s includes all of those
    C{ValueDoc}s, as well as C{ValueDoc}s for any values imported into
    the module, and base classes for classes defined in the module.
