About:
Doxygen is a cross-platform, JavaDoc-like documentation system for C++, C, Objective-C, C#, Java, IDL, Python, PHP, VHDL, and Fortran. Doxygen can be used to generate an on-line class browser (in HTML) and/or an off-line reference manual (in LaTeX or RTF) from a set of source files. Doxygen can also be configured to extract the code-structure from undocumented source files. This includes dependency graphs, class diagrams and hyperlinked source code. This type of information can be very useful to quickly find your way in large source distributions.

Release focus: Minor feature enhancements

Changes:
This release adds support for larger code bases by using the disk for temporary storage of data instead of keeping everything in memory. Build support for VC++ 2005 has been added. An example application is provided in the addon directory, which shows how to use doxygen from within another GPL'ed application. Many bugs have been fixed.

[»] Industrial use
by Heiko Schaefer - Mar 30th 2003 00:35:49

I introduced doxygen into industrial use in a German company. I think this shows the quality.

This is an excellent tool which I highly recommend to any C++ project.
