+/*! 
+    \page activeqt-idc.html
+    \title IDC - The Interface Description Compiler (ActiveQt)
+
+    \ingroup activeqt-tools
+
+    \keyword idc
+
+    The IDC tool is part of the ActiveQt build system and makes
+    it possible to turn any Qt binary into a full COM object server 
+    with only a few lines of code.
+
+    IDC understands the following command line parameters:
+
+    \table
+    \header
+    \i Option
+    \i Result
+    \row
+    \i dll -idl idl -version x.y
+    \i Writes the IDL of the server \e dll to the file \e idl. The
+       type library wll have version x.y.
+    \row
+    \i dll -tlb tlb
+    \i Replaces the type library in \e dll with \e tlb
+    \row
+    \i -v
+    \i Print version information
+    \row
+    \i -regserver dll
+    \i Register the COM server \e dll
+    \row
+    \i -unregserver
+    \i Unregister the COM server \e dll
+    \endtable
+
+    It is usually never necessary to invoke IDC manually, as the \c
+    qmake build system takes care of adding the required post 
+    processing steps to the build process. See the  \l{ActiveQt}
+    documentation for details.
