Changes: Two new methods of searching through the HTML documentation were
added: via a PHP based Web server and via an Eclipse help plugin. The
\addindex command now also works for the HTML indices. Rendering of LaTeX
formulas in the HTML output has been improved (especially for non-white
backgrounds), along with a number of smaller improvements and a large
number of bugfixes.
The HTML output is now XHTML compliant and a new DHTML based live
search function has been added, which replaces the PHP-based search
function. The ablity to customise the LaTeX output has been improved.
There were also a number of smaller improvements and bugfixes.
This release introduces an updated wizard, which now uses Qt4 and
provides more convenience in configuring and running doxygen. It
also features a new Qt Help generator, which no longer requires an
external tool to postprocess the output. An option had been added
that allows configuring the parser that doxygen will use for a
given file extension. As always, a large number of bugs have been
fixed.
Doxygen Release 1.5.7.1
(release date 5-10-2008)
Changes
* The dot tool is no longer part of the doxygen package for
MacOSX. Please install GraphViz separately and set the dot path
to /usr/local/bin
New features
* Added option DOT_FONTSIZE which allows to set the size of
the fonts used in dot generated graphs.
Bug fixes
* id 554432: Re-added ALPHABETICAL_INDEX option.
* id 554379: Fixed internal error for GENERATE_INDEXLOG when
GENERATE_HTML was set to NO.
* id 554546: Included fix for handling relative includes in
the preprocessor.
* Included several VHDL fixes related to syntax highlighting,
finding class members, and mixing upper and lower case.
* Included patch to allow setting DEST_DIR environment variable
to determine where to install doxygen.
Doxygen Release 1.5.7
(release date 28-9-2008)
Changes
* The default CSS style sheet has been cleaned up and simplified,
thanks to the work done by Quinn Taylor.
New features
* Added new config options GENERATE_QHP which enables generating
.qch (Qt compiled help) file via the Qt's qthelpgenerator tool
(part of Qt 4.4+). This type of files can be read with Qt's
Assisant to browse the documentation in a similar way as is
possible with Microsoft's compiled HTML help (.chm). To further
customize the output and run the help generator from within
doxygen, the following options are available: QCH_FILE,
QHP_NAMESPACE, QHP_VIRTUAL_FOLDER, QHG_LOCATION. Thanks to
Sebastian Pipping for the patch.
* Add new option SYMBOL_CACHE_SIZE to allow a different trade
off between doxygen's memory usage and the amount of disk
accesses.
* id 532695: Added 3 new commands: \extends, \implements, and
\memberof that allow object oriented constructs to be documented
as such for languages that do not support it natively (e.g. C)
* Added better support for one line comments after VHDL types.
* Added new option LAYOUT_FILE which can be used to specify a
layout template file that tells doxygen in which order to
generate the output and which titles to use for headings and
how the navigation index will look; Read this for more info.
As a result the following options are now obsolete since they
can now only be controlled via the layout file: DETAILS_AT_TOP,
ALPHABETICAL_INDEX. The following options can also be set via
the layout file, but for convenience and backward compatibility
reasons they are still also part of the configuration file:
SHOW_INCLUDE_FILES, SHOW_USED_FILES, CLASS_GRAPH, COLLABORATION_GRAPH,
GROUP_GRAPHS, INCLUDE_GRAPH, INCLUDED_BY_GRAPH. Run doxygen
with the -l option to generate the default layout file.
* Included update for the Macedonian, Catalan, Brazilian, and
Serbian translation and also support for Serbian with Cyrilic
characters.

suggested fix in the Doxygen Bugzilla for this issue. It will presumably
exactly match the solution in the next release of Doxygen (the current
release is 1.5.0).
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366113
* The stylesheet has changed, so if you use your own, you will need to update
it or the output will look ugly.
* Added support for universal binaries on MacOSX (only the non-GUI part).
* Added CALLER_GRAPH config option and \callergraph command to add a caller
(or called-by) graph to a function or all functions.
* Added REFERENCES_LINK_SOURCE config option which allows to selected if
reference relations should point to the source or to the documentation.
the appropriate tool via USE_TOOLS (usually "gs:run"), and remove
ghostscript.mk. This change removes a rather out-dated file from
pkgsrc and switches packages to use the more compact implementation
of the Ghostcript-handling inside the tools framework.
It is more consistent with the tex.buildlink3.mk name. Also, if a package
really needs latex, it just has to set TEX_ACCEPTED to latex distributions
altough today, all TEX_ACCEPTED possibilities are latex distributions
output filenames. This is problematic in a pkgsrc context as it means
WRKDIR pathnames can appear in generated filenames. Fix by reverting
to the old way of naming the files. Bump PKGREVISION.
New features
Added support for parsing Python code. Special comment blocks in Python
are of the ## # Some comment #
or you can rely on Python docstrings. This code uses the new parser
interface and was based on the work done by a group of students as part
of a compiler design project. Added support for C# style XML tags in the
comments. See the manual or the C# language specification for more
details. Thanks to Talin for doing most of the work. Added support for
the JavaDoc command {@inheritDoc}.
And some bug fixes. For details see:
http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/changelog.html
Doxygen Release 1.4.3
(release date 16-5-2005)
Changes
* For Developers: Added an abstract interface for language
parsers (see src/parserintf.h), which can be used implement
new programming language parsers. There is also a manager
class, where a parser instance can be bound to a certain
file extension.
* Changed the algorithm for matching function/method
declarations against their definitions. The new algorithm
should be faster, more powerful, and more accurate.
New features
* Included new config option HTAGS. When enabled in
combination with SOURCE_BROWSER=YES, the source browser of
GNU's Global source system (via htags) is used instead of
doxygen's own (thanks to Shigio Yamaguchi for the patch).
* Added language updates for Indonesian, Catalan, Russian,
Korean, German, Hungarian, Polish, and Lithuanian.
* Included update of the .spec file (thanks to Stephane
Gourichon).

Doxygen Release 1.4.2
(release date 28-3-2005)
Changes
* If the class/namespace/file member indexes get too long they
are now automatically split over multiple pages (one page
per index letter).
* Internal: I've split the input scanner (scanner.l) in a part
that scans the supported programming languages and passes
the comment blocks to a second scanner. This should clean up
the code a lot and make the handling of structural commands
(like \class and \section) more consistent. It is also a
first step towards supporting dedicated scanners for other
programming languages.
* Made doxygen parse .as files (Action Script) as Java code.
New features
* Added a new option SEPARATE_MEMBER_PAGES. When enabled
doxygen will generate a separate page for each documented
member, instead of putting all members on the
class/file/namespace page. An index for other members of the
same compound is rendered on the left hand side of the page.
* Added new command \subpage that can be used to build a
hierarchy of pages. For pages this is more convenient than
using \defgroup and \ingroup. See the documentation more
details and an example.
* Included man pages for doxygen and doxywizard.
* Language updates for Czech, Swedish, Russian, Italian,
Catalan, German, Brazilian, Korean, Ukrainian, Romanian,
Croatian and Chinese,
