My friend Paul Duvall, principal author of that great Continuous Integration reference "Continuous Integration", has written an excellent article on automating the process of generating technical documentation in "Automation for the people: Pushbutton documentation". For most developers, technical documentation is a pain to do, and is rarely complete or up to date, if it is ever done at all. However, much of what needs to be documented - class diagrams and database DDLs, for example - can be extracted directly from the source code.
