easyappointments/data/scripts/jsdoc/plugins/overloadHelper.js

/**
 * The Overload Helper plugin automatically adds a signature-like string to the longnames of
 * overloaded functions and methods. In JSDoc, this string is known as a _variation_. (The longnames
 * of overloaded constructor functions are _not_ updated, so that JSDoc can identify the class'
 * members correctly.)
 * 
 * Using this plugin allows you to link to overloaded functions without manually adding `@variation`
 * tags to your documentation.
 * 
 * For example, suppose your code includes a function named `foo` that you can call in the
 * following ways:
 *
 * + `foo()`
 * + `foo(bar)`
 * + `foo(bar, baz)` (where `baz` is repeatable)
 *
 * This plugin assigns the following variations and longnames to each version of `foo`:
 *
 * + `foo()` gets the variation `()` and the longname `foo()`.
 * + `foo(bar)` gets the variation `(bar)` and the longname `foo(bar)`.
 * + `foo(bar, baz)` (where `baz` is repeatable) gets the variation `(bar, ...baz)` and the longname
 * `foo(bar, ...baz)`.
 *
 * You can then link to these functions with `{@link foo()}`, `{@link foo(bar)}`, and
 * `{@link foo(bar, ...baz)`. Note that the variation is based on the names of the function
 * parameters, _not_ their types.
 *
 * If you prefer to manually assign variations to certain functions, you can still do so with the
 * `@variation` tag. This plugin will not change these variations or add more variations for that
 * function, as long as the variations you've defined result in unique longnames.
 *
 * If an overloaded function includes multiple signatures with the same parameter names, the plugin
 * will assign numeric variations instead, starting at `(1)` and counting upwards.
