DoxyPressApp

Introduction

DoxyPress is a modern C++ application for generating documentation from annotated sources and API documentation. DoxyPressApp is a GUI application used to configure the JSON project file and run DoxyPress.

DoxyPress and DoxyPressApp were initially derived from Doxygen and DoxyWizard.

Major enhancements

Parsing

  • User selection for full parsing of C and C++ with clang in lieu of the legacy lex parser
  • Clang parser allows complicated modern C++ to be parsed accurately, especially as C++ is updated
  • Added a new parser for makefiles

Classes and Containers

  • DoxyPress links with the CopperSpice libraries
  • Removed all Qt 2 classes and containers
  • Refactored to use value based containers instead of pointer based containers
  • For improved memory management variadic templates and shared pointers are used
  • Source code reformatted for improved readability
  • Modified source code to use C++14 functionality, features, and syntax

Output

  • Project file format enhanced to use a JSON format for improved functionality
  • Command line option to convert Doxygen project files to the DoxyPress format
  • Enhanced layout file to include new sections
  • Improved html output for correctness

System Requirements

To build DoxyPressApp you will need the CopperSpice libraries (CsCore, CsGui, CsNetwork, CsXml), a C++14 compiler, and a C++14 standard library.

Uses CMake or Autotools for building binary files.
