[Doxygen-users] Which version of gviz, and why?

[Neil S. <ns...@ci...>]

Hello,

Which version of gviz/dot should I be using with doxygen?

I feel that this question must get asked a lot, but I can't find any =
record of it, and have had a good look round for the answer. The mailing =
list archive search seems to be broken just now (a problem with =
''/bigassraid/htdig//conf/11668.conf", which sounds painful).

The doxygen page says use 1.5, but using it on a fairly sizeable project =
here, I get a broken image on the graphical class hierarchy (I'm =
assuming this is due to a bug in dot, and not doxygen).

The binary download for gviz 1.5 for Solaris has disappeared from the =
gviz AT&T site, though there is a binary download for 1.7c. I remember =
it being difficult to build 1.5 last time, so I grabbed the binary =
distro. Luckily I still have it.

Nor could I find the Solaris 1.5 binary download on www.gviz.org.

Gviz seems to have moved into the 1.7's. Is there a problem using these =
with doxygen. Has anyone tried it? Is there any reason I shouldn't be =
using the latest stable version of gviz? Is this likely to change as =
gviz moves on?

Sorry if this has been asked before. Should it be a FAQ? It would be =
useful to know why an older version (for which it's becoming tricky to =
get binaries) should be used.

In closing, thanks very much to Dimitri and the doxygen contributors for =
such a great tool! Great stuff.

Thanks in advance,

Neil.
