Doxygen not generating doc for global functions

Question

I have a C header file with lots of methods being declared, all of them contain valid doxygen tags to generate documentation, however doxygen fails to create any documentation for the methods, unless I set the EXTRACT_ALL to be true, but even in this case, the methods appear just in the documentation of the header file... I would like to have a collection point "Functions" that will have a list of methods, where I can click on them ... Is this possible? (my output is optimized to C/PHP however setting it to something else does not help at all)...

Answer 1

You MUST documented the file if you want to generate documents for global functions. This is an example:

/**
 * @file buffer.h
 *
 * Interfaces to Data Buffer.
 *
 * This header define the interfaces of general purpose dynamic data buffer that
 * implemented by Equinox.
 */
#ifndef _EQUINOX_BUFFER_H
#define _EQUINOX_BUFFER_H
