Hi all,
Hi Stephan,

"Temporary hack to work around autodoc bug" made it even more evident
that our home-brewed autodoc is not up to its task and should be replaced.
So, I tried to switch to doxygen when generating the C/C++ header
documentation in odk/pack/gendocu. (There are apparently various
alternatives to doxygen out there; I did not bother to look at any of
them, given that doxygen is something of an "industry standard." Speak
up if you know of a superior alternative.)
The build then has an additional dependency on the doxygen executable as
a prerequisite. This can be controlled via --with-doxygen, where an
explicit --without-doxygen disables generation of the C/C++
documentation in odk (and --disable-odk skips the doxygen check
completely in configure). Tinderboxes that have no doxygen installed
would need an explicit --without-doxygen to avoid configure failures.
(Reportedly, doxygen works well on Mac OS X and Windows, but I did not
check that.)
I would not like to see a new configure flag for doxygen, the odk flag suffices;
generate the documentation anyway. Otherwise it is always good to use standards.
If the generation has to be configurable, chain it to --with-help or --with-helppack-integration or
so?!
Regards,
Hanno
