[Doxygen-users] Getting shared_ptr refs to appear in collaboration diagrams.....

[Eric J. H. <er...@ho...>]

I've done enough Googling to know that if I have something
like

class SubObject {

public:
//blah blah blah
};

class Aggregate {
public:
    boost::shared_ptr<SubObject>   m_ptr;
};


I can get Doxygen to create the "correct" collaboration diagram
if I have a dummy declaration like

namespace boost { template<class T> class shared_ptr<T> { T *dummy; }; }

in my header file.


My question is:  how do I get that to work over all  my  projects
and all my headers, without having to  actually include that line
in every file?

As is often the case with Tech Support, after spending a
few hours this weekend noodling with this, I solved it
pretty much right after posing my question.

The answer is really simple:  put that dummy declaration
in a header file somewhere in my project, and never
actually include it in production sources.  Doxygen will
still see it, though, and then produce the diagrams I want.
