API documentation

Postby fred.hild » 03 Aug 2007 14:45

Hello
Im trying to use libvlc in a small program.

Are there not any good reference to the external API?
The closest I find is this http://www.videolan.org/developers/vlc/ ... ibvlc.html
But it seems like it is porly updated (eventhough it always says it precesley is created).
It is missing functions that exist and there is not stated anywhere for wich version of the libvlc it is refering to.
It is also missing comments on very many of the functions.

Have I missed some golden source of information or is this the best that there is?

it looks like it's the best documentation existing, except the source code itself

The only thing I can find in the Wiki is this http://wiki.videolan.org/Libvlc and that doesnt help very much.
And unfortunately the code is not commented in some files and badly commented in some.
