doxygen1

Overview

Doxygen is a documentation system for C++, C, Java, Objective-C, IDL (CORBA and Microsoft flavors), Fortran, Python, VHDL and to some extent PHP, C#, and D.

You can use Doxygen in several ways:

1) Generate a template configuration file*:

doxygen [-s] -g [configName]

2) Update an existing configuration file*:

doxygen [-s] -u [configName]

3) Generate documentation using an existing configuration file*:

doxygen [configName]

4) Generate a template file that controls the layout of the generated documentation:

doxygen -l [layoutFileName]

If layoutFileName is omitted, DoxygenLayout.xml will be used as the filename.
If - is used for layoutFileName, Doxygen writes to standard output.

5) Generate a template style sheet file for RTF, HTML or LaTeX:

RTF: doxygen -w rtf styleSheetFile

HTML: doxygen -w html headerFile footerFile styleSheetFile [configFile]

LaTeX: doxygen -w latex headerFile footerFile styleSheetFile [configFile]

6) Generate an RTF extensions file:

RTF: doxygen -e rtf extensionsFile

If - is used for extensionsFile Doxygen will write to standard output.

7) Compare the used configuration file with the template configuration file:

doxygen -x [configFile]

Compare the used configuration file with the template configuration file

without replacing the environment variables or CMake type replacement variables:

doxygen -x_noenv [configFile]

8) Show a list of built-in emojis.

doxygen -f emoji outputFileName

If - is used for outputFileName Doxygen will write to standard output.

If -q is used for a Doxygen documentation run, Doxygen will see this as if QUIET=YES has been set.

-v print version string, -V print extended version information

-h,-? prints usage help information

doxygen -d prints additional usage flags for debugging purposes
