If you've used javadoc and then come to doxygen, you may know what I mean when I say I miss the hierarchical (frame-based) view that made jumping from class to class and method to method easy. (For those who haven't seen it, imagine a tree-navigator in an IDE or over a filesystem).
How can I get Doxygen to include a navigation tree, if it's even possible?
A similar question was asked in October, but that was just about stylesheet alternatives and only one turned up. I think I'm looking for something more major.
To use Doxygen, you simply comment your source code in a syntax that Doxygen can read. Doxygen then walks through your source files and creates HTML or LaTeX documentation based on those special comments.
Doxygen takes about 12 hours to run on our code base. This is primarily because there is a lot of code to process (~1.5M lines).
Doxygen (/ˈdɒksidʒən/ DOK-see-jən) is a documentation generator and static analysis tool for software source trees. When used as a documentation generator, Doxygen extracts information from specially-formatted comments within the code.
Note that all you need to do to get the tree on the left in Quinn's example is setting GENERATE_TREEVIEW to YES in the config file.
