#DOXYGEN DEFINE CODE#

For functions and variables, this has the drawback that you have to duplicate your declarations (once in the code and once in the comment block) and that it is not obvious if something has been documented or not.īesides these options, many IDE's also have features to collapse various structures, like comment blocks, in such a way that they become unintrusive for looking at the actual code.

Use doxygen commands like \class, \fn or \var to link the comment block to the element it is documenting, rather than the placement of the comment block.

Place the documentation for member functions with the out-of-class definition of the function.

One mechanism works at a global level, creating a new page for each group. Use doxygen conditional defines that start with cond ConditionalName and ends with endcond. The example is focusing on documenting C files. The second mechanism works within a member list of some compound entity, and is referred to as a 'member groups'. These groups are called 'modules' in the documentation. The idea is to accumulate examples in there and use it as a quick reference. Doxygen has three mechanisms to group things together. This can be useful for custom Doxygen commands which can be defined using ALIASES option.

As the functions only have 1 argument no replacement should take place so the sharp bracket version is not OK, the round bracket version is OK. The Doxygen Translation module of SWIG adds an extra layer of. For this reason, I put together one single C header file which contains some Doxygen code snippets. Two arguments in define: PREDEFINED ENABLEIF (B,C). Int var /*!< Detailed description after the member */ Doxygen has two mechanisms to group things together. AI Libraries can add Doxygen documentation of their APIs. I have been using Doxygen for a while now, but I keep forgetting bit and pieces of it. Use trailing documentation comments after (member) variables and/or enumerators: The Doxygen documentation says: To document global objects (functions, typedefs, enum, macros, etc), you must document the file in.Graph visualization is a way of representing structural information as diagrams of. Some ways to have documentation comments and keep your declarations together without intervening comment blocks are: What is Graphviz Graphviz is open source graph visualization software. I can even make a list: * * item 1 * * item 2 * * item 3 * * \param a this is one input parameter * \param b this is another * \param c and this is the output * * \author L.Doxygen supports various ways to place your documentation comments, not just the big block before a declaration or definition. This command generates a text-editable configuration file called Doxyfile in the current directory. Generate the configuration file At a shell prompt, type the command doxygen -gdoxygen -g. * I could add many more details here if I chose to do so. To use doxygen to generate documentation of the sources, you perform three steps. All words in the documentation that correspond to a documented class will automatically be replaced by a link to the page containing the documentation of the class. - /*! \brief Example function * * \details **myfunction()** takes a and b as arguments and miraculously creates c. Doxygen will automatically replace any URLs and mail addresses found in the documentation by links (in HTML).
