Are there any techniques I can use to run doxygen via multiple processes and manually shard the task? I've seen some talk about creating tag files, but I don't understand enough about them to know if they'd do what I want. What I'm looking for is something like:
doxygen dot download
A tag file is basically just a structured list of symbols with links to the location in the documentation. Tag files allow doxygen to make links from the documentation of one component to that of another.
First you run doxygen on each component to generate the tag file for that component. You can do this by disabling all output and use GENERATE_TAGFILE. So for component A, a Doxyfile.tagonly would have the following settings:
To accomplish this I made a script to generate the Doxyfile's for each component based on the list of components and their direct dependencies. In the first step I run 8 instances of doxygen in parallel (using ). In the second step I run 4 instances of doxygen in parallel.
Depends on what you mean by "integrate". If you want the build process to also build the Doxygen files you can add a "post-build" step to run Doxygen. Go to the project properties dialog, then "C/C++ Build", then "Settings". In the "Configurations" line up top select "all configurations", or perhaps only "release" if that is the only time you want to (re)create the doxygen files. Then under the "post-build steps" add the Doxygen command line.
Until now, I just made an empty folder at my D drive, and set it as my working directory. Everytime, doxygen did work quite well, so... maybe this is the right way to do it, but I'm still a bit concerned about this.This folder that I made at the D drive is still empty even after I run doxygen.
This documentation is generated directly from the source code with doxygen. Since LLVM is constantly under active development, what you're about to read is out of date! However, it may still be useful since certain portions of LLVM are very stable.
All theme files are located in the root of this repository and start with the prefix doxygen-awesome-. You may not need all of them. Follow the install instructions to figure out what files are required for your setup.
I updated my brew-verse - so now using latest doxygen - 1.8.16.
I tried using doxygen 1.8.13, but that version complained about hrefs in the README.md file.
(at this point, there are so many kobalds gremlins in the system, who knows?)
if you use brew as the installer for graphviz, it puts things in /usr/bin/local, not /usr/bin.
(note: macports might be installing it in /usr/bin )
changing file doxygen.cfg variable DOT_PATH to /usr/bin/local solves that problem.
Doxygen is a documentation system for C++, C, Java and otherslanguages.
The hudson doxygen plugin makes it possible to parse the Doxygendescriptor (Doxyfile) and generate the documentation. It can alsoprovide a link to the generated Doxygen documentation (even if it hasn'tbeen generated by the plugin itself).
The generated Doxygen documentation can be retained for each successfulbuild.
Note for Windows users :
In certain circumstances, the association between .pl files and the perl executable is not well configured, leading to "Argument must contain filename -1 at C:\DoxygenMatlab\m2cpp.pl line 4" when running doxygen. To work around this issue, you should execute the following lines in a Windows command prompt ("cmd") :
Type "./ns3 docs doxygen" or "./ns3 docs doxygen-no-build" to build the documentation. The doc/ directory contains configuration for Doxygen (doxygen.conf) and main.h. The Doxygen build process puts html files into the doc/html/ directory, and latex filex into the doc/latex/ directory.
New in version 3.16: If USE_STAMP_FILE is set, the custom command defined by this function willcreate a stamp file with the name .stamp in the currentbinary directory whenever doxygen is re-run. With this option present, allitems in must be files (i.e. no directories, symlinks orwildcards) and each of the files must exist at the timedoxygen_add_docs() is called. An error will be raised if any of theitems listed is missing or is not a file when USE_STAMP_FILE is given.A dependency will be created on each of the files so that doxygen will onlybe re-run if one of the files is updated. Without the USE_STAMP_FILEoption, doxygen will always be re-run if the target is builtregardless of whether anything listed in has changed.
The contents of the generated Doxyfile can be customized by setting CMakevariables before calling doxygen_add_docs(). Any variable with a name ofthe form DOXYGEN_ will have its value substituted for thecorresponding configuration option in the Doxyfile. See theDoxygen documentation for thefull list of supported configuration options.
Some of Doxygen's defaults are overridden to provide more appropriatebehavior for a CMake project. Each of the following will be explicitly setunless the variable already has a value before doxygen_add_docs() iscalled (with some exceptions noted):
Projects should not set this variable. It will be populated with the set offiles and directories passed to doxygen_add_docs(), thereby providingconsistent behavior with the other built-in commands likeadd_executable(), add_library() andadd_custom_target(). If a variable named DOXYGEN_INPUT is setby the project, it will be ignored and a warning will be issued.
If the set of inputs includes directories, this variable will specifypatterns used to exclude files from them. The following patterns are addedby doxygen_add_docs() to ensure CMake-specific files and directoriesare not included in the input. If the project setsDOXYGEN_EXCLUDE_PATTERNS, those contents are merged with theseadditional patterns rather than replacing them:
Set to CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR by this module. Note that ifthe project provides its own value for this and it is a relative path, itwill be converted to an absolute path relative to the current binarydirectory. This is necessary because doxygen will normally be run from adirectory within the source tree so that relative source paths work asexpected. If this directory does not exist, it will be recursively createdprior to executing the doxygen commands.
A number of Doxygen config options accept lists of values, but Doxygen requiresthem to be separated by whitespace. CMake variables hold lists as a string withitems separated by semi-colons, so a conversion needs to be performed. Thedoxygen_add_docs() command specifically checks the following Doxygen configoptions and will convert their associated CMake variable's contents into therequired form if set. CMake variables are named DOXYGEN_ for theDoxygen settings specified here.
New in version 3.11: There are situations where it may be undesirable for a particular config optionto be automatically quoted by doxygen_add_docs(), such as ALIASES whichmay need to include its own embedded quoting. The DOXYGEN_VERBATIM_VARSvariable can be used to specify a list of Doxygen variables (including theleading DOXYGEN_ prefix) which should not be quoted. The project is thenresponsible for ensuring that those variables' values make sense when placeddirectly in the Doxygen input file. In the case of list variables, list itemsare still separated by spaces, it is only the automatic quoting that isskipped. For example, the following allows doxygen_add_docs() to applyquoting to DOXYGEN_PROJECT_BRIEF, but not each item in theDOXYGEN_ALIASES list (bracket syntax can alsobe used to make working with embedded quotes easier):
I've documented my code for doxygen, but I don't want the default HTML it gives. I know I can customize it by providing custom CSS, headers, footers, etc. (like GNOME does), and how I can add common PHP code to the files and tell it to save as .php, but that isn't really what I want.
What I want is output like MSDN. I can't describe it really. My question is, Is this possible using doxygen with something like templates, or do I have to output XML and parse it with another program (that I wouldn't mind writing)?
Doxygen does not support something like HTML templates out of the box, as far as I know. You can refer to the image below (from the official doxygen homepage). It shows the input and output files that are related into the entire documentation creation workflow.
is a command-line based utility used to generate template configuration files and then generate documentation from these templates. Use doxygen --help for an explanation of the command-line parameters
If you are writing new classes, functions or an entire new workbench, it is recommended that you run doxygen periodically to see that the documentation blocks, Markdown, and special commands are being read correctly, and that all public functions are fully documented. Please also read the documentation tips located in the source code.
When generating the complete FreeCAD documentation, you don't run doxygen directly. Instead, the project uses cmake to configure the build environment, and then make triggers compilation of the FreeCAD sources and of the Doxygen documentation; this is explained in the source documentation page.
In the new file the commenting style is changed so the line becomes ## package pyexample_pythonic, which now will be interpreted by Doxygen. However, to be interpreted correctly, the argument has to be edited manually to match the new module (file) name; after doing this the line should be ## package pyexample_doxygen.
With this configuration done, the doxygen Doxyfile command can be run to generate the documentation as usual. Every Python file using Pythonic '''triple quotes''' will be reformatted on the fly to use ##Doxygen style comments, and then will be processed by Doxygen, which now will be able to interpret the special commands and Mardown syntax. The original source code won't be modified, and no temporary file with a different name needs to be created as in the previous section; therefore, if a package example instruction is found, it doesn't need to be changed manually.
