Re: [Doxygen-users] once again about BCB modifier keyword extensi ons

[Aaron B. <Aa...@co...>]

Hi,

__declspec() is not only a borland extension. MS MFC and ATL libs also =
use
this stuff. You can work around this problem with help of the =
PREDEFINED tag
in a configuration file. In my configuration file I have the =
MACRO_EXPANSION
tag set to yes and a long list for PREDEFINED. You can handle =
__declspec
like a macro. Try something like this:

PREDEFINED =3D "__declspec(mod)=3Dwhatever you want to have in your
documentation"

I don=B4t expand __declspec() so my entry for this is:

PREDEFINED =3D "__declspec(mod)=3D "

With that, the __declspec() will be ignored by doxygen (to be correct, =
it
will be replaced with an empty string I think). If you want to =
interpret it,
mod contains your modifier (for example dllexport). I think this should
work.=20
Take a look on the Preprocessing section of the doxygen documentation, =
there
it is described with some examples.

hope this helps,

Aaron

Subject: [Doxygen-users] once again about BCB modifier keyword =
extensions

Hi All,

    Last time i wrote about problems with  __declspec(dllimport) and
namespaces.

I found that all modifiers like __declspec(<decl-modifier>)
where decl-modifier could be
 dllexport
 dllimport
 naked
 noreturn
 nothrow
 novtable
 property
 selectany
 thread
 uuid

could confuse doxygen :((
classes with __declspec() are all ignored,
variables like
//< Initialization of the default global instance of a logger list.
HLoggers __declspec(dllexport) loggers;
are miss interpretered.
e.g.
      const char HLib::__declspec  (  dllimport     )  [inline]


i think the reason doxygen works this way is because __declspec is a =
borland
language extension only :((
so i only can hope that doxygen could interpret these modifiers in the
future, it would be a nice thing from Dimitri.

Thanks
    and sorry for my terrible english.
        bye
