Error doxygen
« on: August 21, 2016, 07:14:12 pm »
Hi everyone, nice to meet you :)

I am a total beginner and have just downloaded codeblocks and am excited about learning to code. But im getting this error message upon starting:

"Execution of 'doxygen' failed.
Please ensure that the doxygen 'bin' directory is in your path or provide the specific path in DoxyBlocks' preferences.
Done."

Appreciate any help as to what the problem is and how I can fix it.

Thanks

Just do what is requested???
Compiler logging: Settings->Compiler & Debugger->tab "Other"->Compiler logging="Full command line"

What do you do to get this message? If you only program you shouldn't get this message...

If you use the doxygen feature you have to install doxygen (if you don't know what doxygen is just google it....)

if you have installed doxygen and you get this message you have to fix the path (add the path to doxygen to your "PATH" environment variable) https://www.google.de/#q=add+folder+to+path+windows

If you don't use windows, please say what OS you are using...
