Maintaining Code Header Blocks

[Charles Law]

I am faced with an enormous task: inserting, updating and generally
maintaining code header blocks for a project. Each code file/module requires
a header, and each major function requires a different style of header. The
comments I will have to enter myself.

Does anyone know of a tool that automates this process? Ideally, the tool
would allow standard text to appear in all blocks, which could be changed
once and then would automatically update every header where it appeared.
Also, the tool would automatically maintain the
function/attribute/method/class name in the header, as well as the calling
parameters and types, and return type.

Does anyone know of such a magical tool? I am praying that someone does.

TIA

I hope your getting paid well for this Charles.

I dont know of a tool, but if you cant find one, it sounds like you are
going to need to design a system yourself.
