haiku/docs/user/support/stopwatch.dox
Niels Sascha Reedijk 089b7ad4c6 Some more work on the Doxygen version of the haiku_book.
I will keep working on the Docbook version, but as I'm still not completely comfortable with that as final choice, I'm playing around with this as well.

The String.cpp file contained doxygen documentation for almost all methods, I copied those to a new file (string.dox) and grouped them accordingly. (Done because Axel is absolutely against in-header or in-source docs)

Integrated the BMidiConsumer and BMidiLocalConsumer class into the same file (like I did now to the producers), since I think it's better to keep a 1:1 relation with the headers. 

Removed the mididefs.dox file and replaced it with the midi2/Midi2Defs.dox file which actually documents the Midi2Defs.h file, rather than contain a custom page that was somewhat hard to find.

Please see http://www.myhouserules.nl/haiku_book/index.html for a generated book from the current source. I actually quite like the output so far, though I'm aware of the fact that I needed to perform some tricks to let Doxygen get to this point.

\class BStopWatch
\ingroup support
\ingroup libbe
\brief A timer class.
This class provides method to time events. The interface is designed to behave like a physical stopwatch. It is especially useful for debugging certain parts of your code, since it can behave like a 'cheap' profiler.
*/
/*!
\fn BStopWatch::BStopWatch(const char *name, bool silent)
\brief Constructs a BStopWatch object and starts the timer.
The constructor creates a clean BStopWatch object. This object
can be given a name. As soon as the object is created, the time
will start ticking away. This class is designed to be usuable as a primitive profiling tool.
If you are profiling your code with this class, pass true as the
silentparameter. Whenever the object is destroyed, information on
the elapsed time will be streamed to standard output.
\param name The name you want to give this object. You may pass NULL.
\param silent Pass true if you want to use this object as a simple profiler.
*/
/*!
\fn BStopWatch::~BStopWatch()
Destroys the object. If the object was constructed with the parameter
silent set t to false, this destructor will print
information on the elapsed time to standard output.

/*!
\fn bigtime_t BStopWatch::Lap()
\brief Start a new lap.
This method sets a lap. With the current implementation you are unable to actually
retrieve the timings of the laps. This is only printed to the standard output when the
object is destroyed. Thus making this tool only usuable for use when doing some
profiling.
\attention Please note that the current implementation is limited to 10 laps. The value returned
is the time that has passed since the timer was started (and not the time that has
passed since the last lap). Any lap call beyond the 10th lap will overwrite the last
value. Note that if the timer is suspended, nothing happens and the method will return 0.

\fn bigtime_t BStopWatch::ElapsedTime() const

\return The elapsed time in microseconds.

Resets the object: it clears the start time, it clears the stored laps and it restarts
the timer.

\brief Get the name
\return the name given to the object at creation time.
