[Doxygen-users] Problems with RTF

[Martin V. <ma...@no...>]

Hello,

I'm trying to use Doxygen 1.2.10 to generate documentation
in RTF format and running into a couple of issues.

I'm hoping that these are due to something I've done or
failed to do rather than bugs.

First problem is that, during processing, doxygen generates
two instances of the diagnostic "Warning: Negative indent
level while generating RTF output!". Unfortunately, no
indication is provided as to where or why this happens.
Does anyone know what might bring this about?

The second problem is that the RTF file seems to be complete
(if I open the RTF file as a text file, I can see that all the
information is there) but, when opened in Word 2000, it is
truncated after the description of the constructors and
destructors of the very first class. Perhaps this is related
to the above?

Finally, in the TOC, the places that should contain page
numbers have the string "pagenum" instead.

Help!

I'm afraid they are caused by bugs. Doxygen 1.2.10 had RTF bugs,
so has 1.2.11 (only different bugs this time).

The problem is that I do not test RTF enough, because I do not use Windows
if unless I have to. 

To resolve this problem, someone has to help me test and maintain
the RTF generator. In the past Parker Waechter and Alexander Bartolich
(and some others) have contibuted code from time to time (thanks guys), 
but apparantly no one tries and tests new releases when they appear in CVS
on a regular basis. 

If you want to help me to test and improve the RTF output please let me 
know. It would be the easiest if you can compile doxygen on Windows yourself, 
and have a reasonbly sized and documented project that you can test the output
with.

If nobody is interested I might be forced to drop RTF support 
altogether in the future!

Regards,
