[Doxygen-users] Doxygen can't find dot

[Marinna L. <ma...@vi...>]

When I run doxygen with HAVE_DOT = YES, I have issues.  It says "Windows cannot find 'dot'.  Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, then click Search,"  then no matter how many times I click OK, the messsage pops back up.  I have to use Task Manager to kill Doxygen to get rid of the error message.  This problem happens with the wizard, Doxygen on the command line, and using Eclox (Eclipse Doxygen addon).

I've just set up Doxygen in the last week, and I've been limping along without the dot graphs, but I'd really like to get dot working with Doxygen (or the other way around).  I know that both dot and Doxygen work independent of each other.  I've generated a few dot graphs and I've generated some basic Doxygen documentation. Both dot and Doxygen are reachable from the path.  I've tried setting the DOT_PATH variable a few times (with and without quotes, backslash escapes, etc), and that doesn't seem to help.  I just don't understand why Doxygen generates 
this error.

I'm running Windows XP SP2, Graphviz 2.8 (for dot), and Doxygen 1.4.6.



Also... my RTF output is screwed up. Pasted below is a sample of the output.
