Description
The classname
tag is used to identify the name
of a class. This is likely to occur only in documentation about
object-oriented programming systems, languages, and architectures.
DocBook does not contain a complete set of inlines appropriate for
describing object-oriented programming environments. (While it has
classname
, for example, it has nothing suitable for
methods.) This will be addressed in a future version of DocBook.
Processing expectations
Formatted inline.
This element occurs in 53 elements.
