Re: [Doxygen-users] Doxygen can't find dot

[Emil M. <mx...@se...>]

One more idea ... from where do you run Doxygen? Do you run Doxygen from 
(Windows) command line directly or from another tool?

E.g. Microsoft Visual Studio (I have version 6 installed) uses its own 
individual PATH processing, and changes made to the system PATH does not 
automatically update paths to executables inside Microsoft Visual Studio 
(I learned it after some similar path problems, when I tried to run some 
newly added tools in custom build step)... there might be some other 
developer environment etc., from which you can run Doxygen and which 
handles paths by itself ...

=> if you can run dot.exe from command line (without symlink in 
%windir%\system32 directly from path), then it would be very very 
strange if you then run doxygen from command line (in the same command 
line box) and doxygen couldn't find dot.exe ...
