I think a doxygen integration plugin could be really useful

Will try to find those sources. ;-)

Post by: Geoffles on December 21, 2006, 10:48:37 am: That would be awesome!

I would be happy to help out, but unfortunately putting in time as well as just learnig how to write C::B plugins might be an issue in terms of time. However, if there are people i can work with, that may help get around such a problem

Tools -> Configure tools....

Post by: Geoffles on December 22, 2006, 09:51:54 am: Yeah you could, thats only marginally more convienient than just having say a doxygen window open the whole time.

The point is, i would like to be able to integrate doxygen fully into the IDE (have you read the other post), and provide a whole bunch of automation to the documentation compiling and integration as well as some general aids for the documentation

Post by: sethjackson on December 22, 2006, 03:25:37 pm: Yeah I read the other post :) That would be a cool plugin since I use Doxygen myself. :)

I'm not sure what exactly is meant by that. I use Doxygen, too (surely) and I have syntax hightlighting with C::B and just added the Doxygen compiler into the tools menu. Using a common file name for the doxy - file (e.g. ${PROJECT_NAME}.doxy or ${TARGET_NAME}.doxy makes this tool menu very flexible and usable for all of my projects. What else would one need?! ;-)
With regards, Morten.

Well, "build documentation" you can easily do via the tools menu (that's what I meant in the other post). "A few buttons" you can easily do using abbreviations (that's how I do it) -> then the cursor is even placed at the position you need to enter data (e.g. params...). Checkout Settings -> Editor -> Abbreviations.
There is a lot of potential to discover within C::B that is already implemented... ;-)
With regards, Morten.

Post by: David Perfors on May 23, 2007, 11:33:25 pm: And even with a simple script plugin it could be possible to get the whole thing more flexible: doxyfile selection, output path selection, etc. (no I didn't do that :P)

Post by: Keyla on May 24, 2007, 07:15:07 pm: O.k. but ATM a few buttons for assistence is right what I'm looking for. The rest would be cool goodies 8)
