Using Doxygen

[styggentorsken]

I have a small project that is getting a little to big for me alone,
so I want to make a documentation in order to be able to cooperate with other developers.
I have started up a little bit with doxygen, which I like so far.

The first annoying thing I ran into is the file documentation, wich naturaly needs to be written for every h file (at least).
It usually looks like this.

Code

#ifndef MYCLASS_H
#define MYCLASS_H

/**
 Declaration of the MyClass class.

 Complete description
 \file myclass.h
 \author Fredrik Ludvigsen
 \date 11/12-08
*/

#endif // MYCLASS_H

Is there any way to generate this correctly, perhaps by using one of the plugin wizards?
When I tried, the headerfile wizard included the default code correctly (inside the header guards), but I don't know how to get the
date right. The class wizard (wich I prefer) did put the default code outside of the header guards (in front)...

Anyone know how to get that time generated? And maybe synchronized too?
Other hints on using doxygen and C::B are also appreciated.

I have maintained a project which as 50+ header files and CPP files.
All I can do is add these code manually one by one.

You could use C::B's scripting engine to automise such things. There was even a Doxygen scripting plugin somewhere in the forums IIRC...

It's still there  ...

Thanks jomeggs for your great doxygen tools!
But your script I think can't do the task OP asked. He want to add a doxygen comment to each file in a project.

To: MortenMacFly
I think C::B's scripting engine could do the job. For example. If a project contians a file name A.h. Then, the engine could parser the file name and get it's base string, then generate some thing like

Code

/**
 Declaration of the ****** class.

 Complete description
 \file A.h
 \author ********
 \date 11/12-08
*/

at the beginner of the file. . But If I'd be an advanced C::B user, I can do it.
