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 bugfixes

Changes:
Support for parsing Fortran 90 and SIP interfaces (used for Python to C++ bindings) was added. A large number of bugs have been fixed.

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.
