[Doxygen-users] Question regarding tagfiles

[<mol...@fa...>]

Hello,

I'm a newbie at using Doxygen and I'm trying to get the TAGFILES feature to
work.

My current directory setup looks like this

c: +
    + temp +
                  + proj1
                  + proj2

Directory proj2 contains source that uses proj1.  I was looking at the
documentation for TAGFILES, and using that
as my template, I set up the config files as follows (btw I am using
hardcoded directory paths, just as a first cut to try
and get something working):

     proj1.cfg:
          INPUT = c:/temp/proj1
          OUTPUT_DIRECTORY = c:/temp/proj1
          GENERATE_TAGFILE = c:/temp/proj1/proj1.tag

     proj2.cfg
          INPUT = c:/temp/proj2
          OUTPUT_DIRECTORY = c:/temp/proj2
          TAGFILES = proj1/proj1.tag=c:/temp/proj1

I was under the impression that if you specify a path for the TAGFILES,
doxygen will not generate an installdox perl script,
but instead will just resolve the links automatically.  However, this is
not happening.  When I execute on proj1.cfg, I get the
tag file as expected (in c:/temp/proj1).  But when I execute proj2.cfg, it
generates an installdox perl script.

My questions are, 1) Should doxygen resolve the links automatically? and 2)
if it should, what is wrong with the above configuration
file?  The only thing I could think of was the directory specification of
proj2's TAGFILES, but it seems to follow the model in the
example on www.doxygen.org

Thanks in advance
