Recently, I worked on PI documentation for one of our projects. I used PI documenter tool for mapping objects released by Daniel Graversen (blogs The easy PI message mapping documentation service, PI mapping diff tool). I see this as a very good tool for PI mapping documentation. But, since I have too many mapping objects that should be documented and each time I need to upload one mapping object at a time, I felt this is a bit exhausting and time consuming job. Hence, I have written a java program wrapper on top of this online tool. This will basically increase the speed of documentation. Here, I am sharing the initial version of java program. Based on your comments I will try to improve the quality of this blog.

We need a Java SDK and some apache common jars (commons-codec-1.3.jar, commons-httpclient-3.0-rc4.jar and commons-logging.jar) for compiling and running this application. Apache jar archives available @http://archive.apache.org/dist/commons/
