[Doxygen-users] Collaboration DIagram in Objective C

[john v. <ve...@ic...>]

I’m new at documenting my programs :-).

I’m interested in getting collaboration diagrams for objective C. So far, it seems that the only collaborators I get are for properties where the variable is an instance of a class from my project. Too often the properties are arrays or dictionaries where the class of the content is hidden.

It seems to me that using the #import statements would be a better guide to the collaborators of  a class. Is there a way to get this to happen?

Also, in some cases some - but not all - properties of the objective C base class reference important collaborators. I have in mind specifically the ‘view’ and ‘representedObject’ properties of the NSViewController class. Is there a way to include these in the collaborator diagram?

Then there is the whole issue of bindings and ‘performSelector’ and so on! 

Of course I can document these in the textual documentation for various classes and methods, but it would be nice to have a diagram that shows these dependencies. 

Thanks — now that I finally started using it, I find dOxygen a huge help.
