Hello,

My name is Manpreet Dhiman pursuing Master of Computer Applications at
Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana.

I have worked on Python , C++ and Doxgen. I have a good command on
Doxygen for Python and C++ languages.

I found Doxygen related project in GSoc under BRL-CAD. I read your
project idea for STEP Source Code Documentation. You require advance
feature of Doxygen in your project. So, I am interested to do work on
STEP Source Code Documentation project. As it is based on Doxygen. And
I deal with Doxygen to create documentation of Python, C++  project. I
did this 6 month ago. Now I want to do work on doxygen with advance
features that is discussed in STEP Source Code Documentation.

Please tell me what are your other requirements and guide me for the same.

Thank you,

Manpreet Dhiman

I am writing my proposal for STEPCode project "STEP Source Code Documentation" . I want to know more about this project. What are requirements of this project and How I can contribute in this?. So that I can make my proposal better.

Thank you.
Thank you,

It is your project proposal, so you are defining the requirements for what you'd like to accomplish.

This naturally requires you to do some work to understand what STEPcode is, the state of the documentation, the nature of building parsers with STEPcode, and to gain familiarity with the source code you would be modifying.  This is required so you have a solid understanding of what to modify and how long it might take you so you can write your proposal.

Don't think of this like homework or contract work.  We don't define the project or the objectives.  You get to do that! :)

Cheers,
Sean

I write proposal and define sequence of task that I  will accomplish during boding period. And now I am  understanding current code and Documentation. Normally, we can see Doxygen Documentation from .html file. But this project, used CMake with Doxygen for Documentation. So, I run doxygen using "make doc" command. But unable to see  documentation.How  I can see current  Documentation. Where I am wrong?. Guide me, so that I can write best proposal.

You will need to submit a patch.   In your proposal you need to show that you successfully built STEPcode by including a page from the current Doxygen generated documentation.   Also, describe in your proposal what features the current STEPcode documentation possesses, and then specifically what you intend to improve.
