I have been preparing polymorphic_value for submission to boost.
I have draft documentation here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1xpD8s8zDzedVDDlqjsl1JtYGaJBHWoGy
but am having problems generating doxygen docs. A forward declaration seems to stop generation of docs for methods of polymorphic_value.
I'm at a loss as to why doxygen is not working properly for boost doc (it works fine when run in isolation) and would be grateful for any insight anyone can offer. I suspect it's a simple problem but I'm not very experienced with doxygen and am new to the boost docs tools.
source is here: https://github.com/jbcoe/polymorphic_value/tree/boost
I'm not sure if this helps, but I have a dim recollection of trouble with Doxygen and Boost when I had code with a lot of separate definitions and declarations. Is the problem that Doxygen is seeing the declaration, and finding no Doxygen-syntax comments, ticks it off as 'done'? When Doxygen reaches the definitions and the Doxygen-syntax comments, it or the later Boost processing ignores them. I have a dim recollection that I repeated the Doxygen-syntax comments in both places. You could try this quickly? HTH Paul --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 (0) 1539 561830
