  • Allow links to other markdown pages of the form [link text](page.md)
  • Avoid accessing uninitialized memory in fileToString
  • Build problem with unistd.h and Cygwin The standard g++ compiler under windows (win32-g++) has unistd.gh file; Microsoft windows does not have it, therfore it is better to use the winbuild directory in case of windows adn no dependency otherwise
  • Consistency in language part of the documentation Made documentation more inline with other parts of the documentation (regarding the way e.g. filenames are presented) Corrected some spelling errors Corrected the warning in the language.doc by placing ta reference to the files from which language.doc is generated Corrected the color for the languages that are still v1.4.6 (language name now also red in stead of a pink background, was confusing with languages that were 1.5 / 1.6 compatible)

  • Regenerated language.doc
  • Removed japanese characters in maintainers.txt as they break the build
  • Removed redundant backslashes in regexp pattern
  • Report details about fork() failure in logs.
  • Russian translator updated, new Russian maintainer added.
  • Small spelling correction to generate an rtf extensions file -> to generate a rtf extensions file
  • Some texts can be independent of \htmlonly / \latexonly
  • Space missing in error message. the word 'in' and the vale of filesOption were concatenated
  • This patch contains changes regarding the build system so that the *nix and Windows systems use the same information (consistency). Some use names routine names have been changed (from .l files with -P option) to reflect the file name that generated the routines, this makes it easier to create a general procedure. A number of include / header files are files are generated from different file types (html, xml, js), due some limitations of the windows build system the generated file names had to be changed (the extension in the windows build system is only available including the '.' so e.g. the file jquery_fx.js generates now jquery_fx.js.h instead of jquery_fx_js.h) In the windows version the creation of .cpp files from .l files has been adjusted to correct for the YY_BUF_SIZE problems. Furthermore on windows (and also used on *nix) some commends have been replaced with python scripts so that on windows only python is need (besides flex and and bison). On *nix also perl is required for the generation using tmake.
  • Updated Visual Studio project files to include new source files
  • Usage of the -d opion corrected Giving an error when a wrong -d option is given. Made some error mesages more consistent. Corrected usage of the exit call, in case of an error: exit(1) otherwise exit(0). A closer look should be made on exitDoxygen as it does not contain any exit statements and it is unclear (to me) when it is used.

  • usage: make -d print dev doxygen options

New in Doxygen 1.8.4 (May 20, 2013)

  • Changes:
  • id 686384: When INLINE_SIMPLE_STRUCTS is enabled, also structs with simple typedefs will be inlined.
  • Doxywizard: scrolling with mouse wheel no longer affects the values in the expert view.
  • id 681733: More consistent warnings and errors.
  • New features:
  • Added support for "clang assisted parsing", which allows the code to also be parsed via libclang (C/C++ frontend of LLVM) and can improve the quality of the syntax highting, cross-references, and call graphs, especially for template heavy C++ code. To enable this feature you have to configure doxygen with the --with-libclang option. Then you get two new configuration options: CLANG_ASSISTED_PARSING to enable or disable parsing via clang and CLANG_OPTIONS to pass additional compiler options needed to compile the files. Note that enabling this feature has a significant performance penality.
  • Included patch donated by Intel which adds Docbook support. This can be enabled via GENERATE_DOCBOOK and the output location can be controlled using DOCBOOK_OUTPUT. Docbook specific sections can be added using \docbookonly ... \enddocbookonly
  • Added support for UNO IDL (interace language used in Open/Libre Office), thanks to Michael Stahl for the patch.
  • Included patch by Adrian Negreanu which stores data gathered by doxygen in a sqlite3 database. Currently still work in progress and can only be enabled using --with-sqlite3 during ./configure.
