<h2><a name="introduction" id=
"introduction"></a>Introduction</h2>
<p>Boost.Python supports docstrings with automatic
appending of Pythonic and C++ signatures. This feature is implemented
by <code>class function_doc_signature_generator</code>
The class uses all of the overloads, supplied arg names and default values, as well as
the user-defined docstrings, to generate documentation for a given function.</p>
<h2><a name="classes" id="classes"></a>Classes</h2>
<h3><a name="function_doc_signature_generator-spec" id=
"function_doc_signature_generator-spec"></a>Class
<code>function_doc_signature_generator</code></h3>
<p>
The class has only one public function which returns a list of strings documenting the
overloads of a function.
