Chapter 4 Doxygen

Doxygen is an open-source tool used to extract code prototypes and specially flagged code comments from C/C++ source code as well as Java and IDL (Corba, Microsoft and KDE-DCOP flavors). Doxygen creates an HTML system covering the code items.

In addition, Doxygen is also used imperfectly on Perl files and on an in-house Pascal-like programming language (IVE) files. This required the use of input filters which fake out Doxygen in what it sees and recognizes.

For more information about Doxygen, refer to www.doxygen.org.

Although this chapter is specific to Doxygen, much of what the TechPubTools perform can be applied to JavaDoc output. JavaDoc is another open-source tool that accomplish many of the same things for the Java language; JavaDoc output could easily be incorporated into this solution.
