Doxygen is a documentation system for C++, C, Java, Objective-C, IDL
(Corba and Microsoft flavors) and to some extent PHP, C# and D.
It can generate an on-line documentation browser (in HTML) and/or an
off-line reference manual (in $\mbox{\LaTeX}$ ) from a set of documented
source files. There is also support for generating output in RTF
(MS-Word), PostScript, hyperlinked PDF, compressed HTML, and Unix man
pages. The documentation is extracted directly from the sources, which
makes it much easier to keep the documentation consistent with the
source code.
You can configure doxygen to extract the code structure from
undocumented source files. This is very useful to quickly find your way
in large source distributions. You can also visualize the relations
between the various elements by means of include dependency graphs,
inheritance diagrams, and collaboration diagrams, which are all
generated automatically.
To take full advantage of doxygen's features the following additional
ports should be installed:
- print/teTeX for generating LaTeX, Postscript, and PDF output.
- math/graphviz for the include dependency graphs, the graphical
inheritance graphs, and the collaboration graphs.
- print/ghostscript
