[Doxygen-users] Using Tag files and core dumps @ 1.2.8.1 and 1.2.9.1

[Glenn M. <gle...@vo...>]

Problem: Doxygen projects that use tag files tend to core out for
Doxygen versions greater than 1.2.7. They core out in the build process
and no installdox perl script is generated to resolve hyperlinks.=20

Simplified Background:=20

BAPI doxygen project (ivx_bapi.dox with HTML output to
doc_publish/cref_ivx_bapi) has:

TAGFILES               =3D=20
GENERATE_TAGFILE       =3D x_bapi.tag

Voyeng doxygen project (att_voyeng.dox with HTML output to
doc_publish/cref_voyeng) has:

TAGFILES               =3D x_bapi.tag
GENERATE_TAGFILE       =3D x_voyeng.tag

My script file for creating just a portion of the system has:

echo "Remove files from last run"
rm x*.tag
rm doc_publish/cref_ivx_bapi/*
rm doc_publish/cref_voyeng/*
/zulu/tmp/doxygen-1.2.7/bin/doxygen ivx_bapi.dox=20
/zulu/tmp/doxygen-1.2.7/bin/doxygen att_voyeng.dox    =20
echo "Resolve hyperlinks..."
cd doc_publish/cref_voyeng
installdox -l x_bapi.tag@zz_go_parallel_zz/cref_ivx_bapi
cd ../..

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

The above settings work when I run Doxygen 1.2.7. The SME who supports
me has upgraded Doxygen several times. We're now running Doxygen
1.2.9.1. I'm noticing that the HTML output craps out for these projects
that include tag files. When I go back and test at 1.2.8.1, I'm getting
a version of the same error.

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

With version 1.2.9.1, I get:

Has anybody been experiencing problems with tag files and installdox not
working properly at newer versions of Doxygen? Are there any workarounds
short of going back versions?

Any insight will be appreciate.

In the meantime, we'll be upgrading our Doxygen version to the latest
and greatest.
