Interface to Doxygen
Many programmers have discovered the value of documenting C++ source code using Doxygen-style tags. In fact, I believe that the creator of Doxygen was trying to replicate the Qt documentation system (but somebody can correct me on this). Anyway, I don't use Doxytagging as much as I should for the following reasons 1. I'm lazy 2. It takes some effort to manage the Doxyfile (ensuring that it includes all of my project files, but not any extras) 3. it takes some effort to generate the docs and view them and keep track of them.
To remedy this, I have added an option in HiQt which allows user to
(a) One-click generation of Doxygen documentation on the currently active project
(b) Viewing that documentation within the IDE (like the Qt reference doc browser)
(c) Press F1 on a keyword to go to the Qt docs, Press F2 on a (project) keyword to go to the project docs
(d) Browse the docs, and then navigate back to the corresponding source code
(Remember, Handcoder's IDE never writes anything to your project directory...)
Now I will use Doxygen tags a lot more -- because I can see the benefits instantly... and I hope you will try it too -- (especially if you use windows because it will work out of the box with 4.3.0, Linux should work too I am guessing)
